Make sure your running a FULL 12 volts to the Dist. If you have replaced a points type and are using the wire that went to the coil you have a ballast resistor in line and are not getting the voltage you need. Make sure you run a good sized wire to the dist from the fuse block. Find you a keyed on source.
