My grandfather's Super M hasn't been run in 4 years. Today I changed out the gas and added fresh, tried to start and it turned over strong. The exhaust pipe flapped and it sounded like it was puttering a bit but would not start. Upon testing the plugs I found only one plug was firing. My first thought was bad plug wires or maybe the coil.

What kind of wires would I need to replace the faulty plug wires, anything specific?

Anyone know where I can get a coil pack?

Any other thoughts?

I'd check, clean, and reset the points. It may be the condenser is getting weak.

Also check the lugs on the inside of the distrubutor cap. They get a buildup on them. For a quick cleanup, just scrape with a knife. Also clean the rotor button.
