The advance doesn't even have to be on the tractor for it to run,it pulls the breaker plate to advance the timing dist only opens and closes the points.when they open - close it collapse the field in the coil and the secondary fires goes to the rotor and jumps to the cap cyl contact then to the plug gap to ground.you might look at the roll pin in the gear on the dist shaft.you do have the coil wired right dont you( + or bat) voltage from switch,(-or dist) to the dist? did this tractor do this before you replaced parts?Also check the breaker plate for being shorted.have seen them do that before,but not fire all cyls at once.is your battery fully charged? I have also seen the coil terminals jump to each other when a plug wire is bad or unhooked. keep at it don't give up .JR
