Hopefully, the pictures uploads are fixed for the time being. Let me know if you continue to have issues. I am looking into a more permanent solution. Thanks for your patience. - Makotosun

You need a meter that can measure this accurately or use a different method. There are hundreds if not thousands of posts on this topic.

I just reread your post, and you said you did disconnect all the wires coming out of the stator loom. If you have a bulb around, even a 12 volt bulb, you might try making a test light. This is with one end going to the battery positive, and the other end going to the stator black.

Digital ohmmeter (most, not all)
Points tend to get a non-conductive coating and/or someone cleaned them improperly and they aren't making electrical contact when closed.
Incorrect wiring, possible broken wire to points or points not grounded to stator. (not common)
(If points were making contact there would be a solid connection to ground with or without condenser.)
