A few questions after further thought. If voltage drop and heat at the ignition contacts were causing a starting problem through diminished or compromised performance of the breaker points, wouldn't that also effect function and performance while I'm running? After a difficult start I'm generally good to go once I'm running.
In this condition would it be possible for the starter to turn but no discharge be generated from the breaker points and thus no spark at the plug? With my last no spark episode the motor was cranking as well as ever.
Sorry if my thoughts seem disjointed. Thinking, typing and watching a crazed 15 month old is getting the better of me.
