carb, and now I have no spark at the plugs, I'm showing power to the
distribitor, coil and point, but nothing at the plugs, anyone have any
ideas? any help greatly needed.

I'm just guessing but you need to check everything and that is just
one of many things

Re: 600 has no spark
the same thing happen to mine when i bought it last month and after a
lot of time checking this and that. it turned out that it was the
points. I took a fingernail file and filed it on the top and bottom
and tryed to fire it up and ran. take the spark plug out and place it
so it can ground then short the hot side of the points to ground and
you should get a spark. if you do it is the points.
hope this helps.
