Take the cap off the dizzy and check the rotor. If it looks good pull the plugs and see what you're workin with.

Worn rotor button = bad. Replace rotor.


Worn contacts on inside of cap = bad. Replace cap.


Brown "dust" on everything = bad/expensive. Dizzy bearing failure, replace dizzy.

Just do not crank the engine with the cap off (at least with the dizzy plugged in) to get the rotor to turn around to access the screw. You will blow up the ignition coil very quickly. Made that mistake once and never again lol.

Could you be a little more specific. What was rusty? How did the rotor button look?

And you say you are 100% sure you are getting spark. How did you perform this test? Just because you see a spark does not necessarily mean you are getting a strong enough spark.

did you check all the spark plugs? Are any of them fouled?
