Re: Points/Ballast Resistor Gurus Needed!

I had a problem with my ignition switch where one of the male lugs on the back of the switch was broken where it is riveted to the body of the switch.  It would make contact some of the time making it hard to find.

Up until a few minutes ago, the engine would not when the key was on START.  It
would ocassionally catch as the key was released - gonna guess the motor was
rotating and was ready to fire when the key hit the RUN position. I check the
circuit from IGN2 on the switch to the ballast resistor and everything has
continuity. So now all of a sudden it starts on START. Maybe the electrical
contact cleaner did it's job along with the sliding contacts against each other
as I disconnect and reconnect the wiring.

But, now I have another problem - it starts on START but won't run when the key
is released.  Typically this is the ballast resistor but I've checked and it
still has continuity.

What happened??? What do I check now?
