Hi and thank you for letting me join.
I have just stripped cleaned and rebuilt my first Lister D but cannot get it to run.
Fuel seems good as I can smell it coming out of the exhaust so I suspected the spark was bad.
Cleaned up the points and set them, fitted a new condenser and have a new HT lead and plug.
I suspect either the coil is duff or the new condenser is.
The condenser does seem to charge up with a multi-meter set to MΩ and discharge when set to Volts.
The coil resistances (when disconnected) are 4500Ω on both coils to the earth connection and 0.8Ω from the coil wire to earth (see attachment).
When assembled both sides of the points are continuous to earth even when they points are open.
I can't find any of the document showing what good resistance values should be.
Any help greatly appreciated.
