Finally got fuel to the engine to try and start after a couple of years and managed to get cyl 4/5/6 firing but no spark at cyl 1 and not firing 1/2/3 plugs are wet do fuel getting through.
Any ideas? not running a dinoplex just a standard electroninc ignition which was working fine when the engine last ran after being rebuilt. Just been stood inside a garage for a couple of years since.
Do the points do one bank each? Thanks Tony.

try replacing your condenser with a good one..
Re: 2400 Engine only firing on 4/5/6
The two sets of breaker points are "working together" in such way
that the ignition is fired every second time from each set of points.
In your case, it is most likely one of the breaker point sets that
has stopped working.
To fully understand how the distributor is working, the best way
is reading the "Specification and Features, Servicing Instructions
handbook. (It can be downloaded from this Forum.)

So that would affect one side? I will replace the condenser and both points. Thank you

Dinoswede is the 2400 distributor the same as the 2000?
