1910 4 cylinder Maxwell spark issues

[Jimmy Trigueiro]

I have a 1910 Maxwell that has ran good every year for the last 30 years. All of a sudden I don’t have spark for it to fire. Need help trouble shooting

Do you have a coil box with dry cells in it to start the car?  Pictures of what you have are needed as Mark says above.

Most internet information points to a system with dry cells to start and then running on magneto voltage.  Of course in a system that’s more than 110 years old anything is possible.
