    rectifier dead...do i need this to get a spark?

    The rectifier, along with the voltage regulator, is only for charging the battery. You won't need it to produce a spark, however your battery will die pretty quick without it. If the engine is running and your seeing 14ish volts DC on your battery then your rectifier is good. That is normal...
