try and disconnect the wire from the coil that is going to the distributor. then with the points in the open position, check the wire with your meter on the ohm scale. it should show an open circuit, then with the meter still attached, rotate the engine by hand (ignition off) till the points close. it should read a closed circuit then. if it reads a closed circuit with the points open, something is grounding out. check the side of the distributor where the wire from the coil attaches, could be the insulation there is bad. also check for voltage at the coil terminal going to the distributor, you should get a reading there. if not coil could be bad.
