[Farmall] Farmall 340 Not starting

[Larry Hardesty]

Folks,  Late last week I went out to start my Farmall 340.  It fired right
up and ran maybe three or four minutes and then died suddenly like the
switch had been turned off.  Tried starting it again and nothing..no sputter
or single fire or anything like it was a gas problem.  

So I started going down the path of looking for an electrical problem.
Checked and with the switch on I am getting voltage to the coil but nothing
coming out. I pulled the main wire coming out of the coil and put it near
the frame and no sparks when cranking over the tractor.  Points looked a
little pitted.  So I replaced the condenser and points.  Still nothing. No
juice coming out of the coil when main wire near frame.

So yesterday I replaced the coil.  Still no juice coming out of the coil
when I put the main wire coil near frame.  With switched turned on I do get
voltage to the coil.

What is next?

Thanks
