Adding a little 100 octane to the fire...My MSD coil contact in the cap ground off today as I was timing the engine. It just died and I ground the batteries down trying to restart. Pulled the cap and there it was....ground flat or broken off to the aluminum holder. Ordered a new cap and rotor today, and will make sure tab on rotor is bent up far enough for direct contact. I'll bet it wasn't touching and arc'ed the darn thing up. I also noticed a lot of build up or corrosion on the individual brass contacts for each cylinder. Guess I'll drill holes as well for venting.
