Hi John thank you so much for your reply, I bought a new ignition coil and the shop said that's the one don't need resistor so I cut both wires going to the resistor and wired together directly
I have measured the power to the coil is about 11.5v when battery posts show 12v
I also bought a inline spark test which lights up but spark is very dim ( I had to put spark plug in a cardboard box to see it)
Maybe distributor ? I took it off without moving the shaft not sure if that still moved the timing? Yes it's a flathead engine

Fact of the week
Brothers Adolf ("Adi") and Rudolf ("Rudi") Dassler split their shoe company after WWII due to a bitter feud, and established the rival companies of Adidas and Puma. Their personal animosity and business rivalry divided their German hometown Herzogenaurach. The town became known as "the town of bent necks" due to the intense loyalty to each brand.
