When you pull the plug is it wet?
How old are the plugs/wires?
Any lose connections in and around your coils?
What are your compression numbers?
Have you checked the timing?
Is your valve clearance all in spec?

Yeah I redid the wiring on my old mans international tractor, an old 300U. I triple checked everything but just could not get it to fire... new coil, new alt, new d-cap and wires, reset the timing, fresh battery and new wires through the whole machine.
Then he came out, changed the plugs.... and to this day says he "fixed it"
