Points? Whats that? Ha, sorry, just kiddin. Comin down from the CO mountains to the sea shore I'd say you'd have to look over everything. K.I.S.S. Do you have spark? Uhmm, mixture. What do your plugs look like. Maybe your fouled. Let us know.

Check the point gap. The rubbing block can wear down to a point that the points will not open. You need to put a tiny pinch or grease on the cam lobes in the dist.
