have 76 gl1000 with dyna coils and points

was running ok i thought but few days ago started to missfire, a lot
i thougt it was point gap ot timming
reset gap
cleaned points with sand paper, and even sprayed with electrical contact cleaner, as well as put paper between points to drag out any stuff from sanding.
got it to run set timming with strobe light.

3&4 seems to run steady no arcing at points, steady flasho on strobe

1&2 points arching continously it appears irratic flashingon strob

does this mean my coil 1&2 is shot or am i looking in the wrong place?

can i put the dodge neon coils in this bike safely from a thread i saw on this site?????

76 gl1000 points arcing

Arcing points indicate a bad condenser.
