Two sets of points. One set fires the starboard bank, the other set fires the port bank.

Wire missing that connects the two sets of points? Points need cleaning with either lacquer thinner or acetone. One set of points not set properly...... set on high lobe so that a .020 gauge will pass thru but a .022 will not.
