It's points all the way get a néw condenser for a 70 Chevy or equivalent they're all the same anyways you put it in the electrical system on the ground side of the HT coil so basically where the age t-bolts to you want to mount the condenser so that the frame is held by the mount boat think of it as a balloon for your electrical system it stops the points for marking by allowing the Overflow to be held by the capacitor I would highly suggest you go up into the wiki and get the service manuals and go over the point Style A35 wiring diagram and Magneto out I do believe that one requires the tail light to function for it to start so if you have a burnt-out tail light it would have stopped it from starting or inside of your tail light there is a ceramic resistor hidden underneath the bulbs the plate prize up and you'll see the ceramic resistor sometimes they overheat or get cracked that takes the voltage and gives a resistance Factor to the HT coil if it doesn't have it it won't fire so go over your tail light go over the wiring look up in the wiki get the service manual you may have to set the points you may need a flywheel puller for it you may need a probe but if you look you can bypass the tail light safety feature buy rewiring the tail light and putting the blue blue black wire which would be the return ground from the tail putting it to the frame on both sides so then you're using the frame of the bike for the negative ground instead of relying on it coming from the tail you might have to run a ground strap from the engine to the frame if it has rubber bushings around the bolts
