Default 81 ezgo points setting. Manual available?

I have a 1981 ezgo and I'm having trouble finding what the points spacing should be? Is there anyone that knows or that has a 1981 manual they can share?

After setting the points to the specs above I still have no fire. The spark plug sparks once when I first hit the gas but then not again. Any ideas on what I could be missing?

Have you tried another plug?
Is the plug the right one?
When I got my cart the PO had put in a chain saw plug.

I'm wondering if I have a cylinoid issue. What is the best way to check if it is bad.

If it is spinning over, it's not the solenoid. You may want to check the capacitor.

Carts with electronic ignition that only spark one time when you push the pedal, have bad ignitor boxes.
