I am attempting to revive a 1947 Chrysler Ace flat head 6 that has been sitting for 25 plus years. It is in a 1947 Chris Craft '17 utility boat but looks like a carbon copy of the 230 flat 6 in my '59 W-100. I changed the oil rebuilt the carb and starter, and now it turns over without hesitation. With the key on I get power to both sides of the coil and to the points, the rotor rotates and the points open and close. I do not however get a spark either coming out of the coil or the spark plug wires.What am I missing, I tried a another coil that I had lying around but still no luck. What am I missing? Any input is appreciated. Joe in NH
