still no spark, original cub cadet 1962 bought new plug today,don't know what to do,there is a spark at the coil,do i hook the condenser to feed side of coil to test the coil?or does this allow spark at plug?because i left it hooked to positive side when i tried the test,i took the wire off points that goes to coil and grounded one end of wire and touched other to positive side of coil,there was spark at coil as i touched wire to it,but there was no spark at the plug,but do i have to put condenser to feed side of coil to get spark at plug? iam totally lost and don't know what to check.please help thanks jeff.
Hello, I am a new member from Santa Barbara which probably is an unusual place to find a CUB. I have an "Original" 1962 Cadet with a spring blade. I have owned it for 30 years. My father gave it to me when he bought a bigger rig.
The restoration will be a challenge as it has not moved from the pictured location in 12 years. I has a broken 2 & 3 slider gear. Yes, that is a walnut tree that grew between the blade and frame.
I am Looking forward to participating in the forum to learn how to do it right. I am an engineer and have built street rods.

Jeff Martin,
Look again at the drawing that I posted earlier, It should be at the bottom of this page. Notice that the condenser is connected to the negative side of the coil and the ignition wire is connected to the positive side of the coil. Start by connecting those to the coil. Do you have a meter? If so check the voltage between the negative side of the battery to the positive side of the coil. The meter should read roughly 12 volts. This should verify the correct voltage at the coil. After verifying the voltage then you can connect a jumper wire between the negative side of the battery to the negative side of the coil. Just temporarily tap the jumper wire to the negative post of the coil where the condenser is also connected. This should produce a spark at the spark plug. Do not tap the jumper wire against the positive side of the coil. If you do the jumper wire will spark because you are putting a dead short across the battery. This can and most likely will damage the wiring or switches.
Again, make sure everything is connected like the diagram below, the jumper is only used to pass the points.

Thanks for the reply Roland. The usual petroleum based solvents aren't touching this gunk. It's a grey, almost waxy substance that is only on stuff that wasn't submerged in the Hytran or whatever was in it. Not the usual balls of jello sitting on the bottom. Maybe a water based parts cleaner will do the trick. You forgot a picture of the economy sized 5 gal bucket of Hytran. A little cheaper that way.
