Thanks Mark. I want to make sure I'm clear on the testing procedure for the ignition coil.
So on the battery side of the coil, I just turn on the key and use my test light to touch the wire coming to the ignition coil (touch the black test lead to the block, red test lead to the connection on the coil). If it's on, I have power. Is it possible that I have power, but not enough? do you know what the volt meter should read here (or a rough range)?
For the distributor side of the coil, I'm not clear on how you are saying to test this. Can I just take my tester and again touch the black lead to the ground, then quickly touch the little arm in the distributor cap that spins and makes contact with each point? If I get a reading when I do that, that means power is coming through the cap and getting to the points right? I just cont confused when you were describing jumping the points with a screwdriver. I'm not sure what you mean. Can you try and clarify?
