ok in retrospect dieelectric grease is more for moisture in connectors and clamps no so much like true HV silicone...to stop arcing in old TV flyback transformers

give it a smell test burnt stuff usually smellls.. burnt

points looked real dirty ..........hopefully a good clean will help but that ampliifer is till suspect...:-(

Im pretty sure those green coils are for the charging system and nowt to do with ignition . If by burnt you are refering to the brown discolouration on the top of some of those coils I say its just that ...discoloured due to age and possibly that green coating is thinner on the top . If that stator is between .1 and 1-2 ohm and not down to earth its probly fine .
I have just (yesterday) found that the stator charging harness plug had fried itself on my quad ( I was looking for something totally unrelated and saw it ), measured the stator ....all fine ,new plug , job done .
Dont be intimidated by these things as they are quite simple once you know, good on you for having a go
