I'm guessing that you mean to disconnect the kill wire where it terminates (between the points and the condenser, I think) in case it's shorting somewhere. I was testing continuity on cables with a multimeter (don't worry, not testing spark with it) and found that even when they are separated, there is constant continuity between both of the spark timer points. Is that normal? I can't see it being so as it has to complete a circuit for a spark to fire. (I think this might mean that the condenser can never charge enough to produce proper spark).

Thanks for all your advice... it has been very helpful.
