My Friends 56 suddenly won't Start. Conventional Ignition with Points. Points are opening OK. When doing a little checking using Test Light I found there is no Power to "I" Terminal on Solenoid with Key in run Position.When I checked mine there is Power to that Terminal with Key in "Run" Position.No Power on "I" Terminal when cranking which there should be to provide direct 12 Volts to Coil to start the Engine.There is Power to One Side of Resistor with Key in "Run" Position but not both Terminals which I believe there should be.So my Guess is the Solenoid has quit and because it would not Start using the "I" Terminal on Solenoid the Resistor is also burned out trying to draw Voltage to start Car instead of the Bypass Circuit on Solenoid. Before I buy a new Solenoid and Resistor any other Opinions? Thanks
