Best Answer

you have to remove the pull start cover, then the spark plug and block the piston from reaching the top of the cylinder head. Romove the little metal sreen covering the fly wheel and use a pipe wrench to remove the metel part in front of the fly wheel. My fly wheel slid off pretty easy but it might take some work to get it off(dont drop the key) once the fly wheel is off you will have a metel cover over the points and condenser. Remove that and you will have access to them, ive never replaced them but i have worked on them. I would suggest cleaning and making sure the gap is correct before replacing, make sure not to get any of your oil from your hands on the point or condensor.

GOOD LUCK
