Warm coil and points arcing

Howdy,

CB77E seems to not run/fire good on the right cylinder.
right points are arcing even though it's been filed and cleaned.
Right side coil gets warm to the touch, other side does not.
Tried changing condensors and plugs to no avail?
Comments please...

Thanks

Nobody ever experience this?

Den,

Did you replace the condenser with a new unit? Is everything grounded properly? You have the ground strap that goes from top engine mount bolt to coil mount? Cleaned and sanded paint from frame where ground attaches? It is normal for the coils to get warm, strange that it's only the right one though.

I had this issue except it was the left that wasnt firing for me, it seemed that my timing was off... I adjusted it again and they both fired. Its not much help but thats my experience.
