Does yours have 2 separate ignition coils or 1 coil with 2 spark plug leads? The 2 coil system must have the coils hooked in series. 1 coil will have the ignition B+ connect to the + on it. The - from that coil will connect to the + of the next coil and that coil's - will connect to the points terminal on the distributor. Also make sure your condenser is new. A bad condenser will eat up points! If you have a single coil, I believe it should have a ballast resistor in the coil + circuit. If someone bypassed it, the points will burn also. Good Luck on it! These are great carts!!!
