    77 GS400 points timing troubles

    Hello everyone I am back for more help. Finally got the right points on and set the gap, I set the timing for the left point, but when trying to set the right one, I could not get the bulb to light up in any position. Obviously this hinders setting the timing. I did notice when putting the alligator clip on the right connection, there was some small sparking that did not occur when I put it on the left. This was done with the bike off because my continuity tester is for dead circuits. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? I'm using an old continuity tester but it worked fine for setting the timing for the left point. (Cross posting from electrical)

    From the picture you have a fibre washer missing, I could be wrong ?
