I am an electrical idiot but willing to learn. I set my meter to 200 ohms and tested the ballast resistor, the meter reads 3.0. Voltage ahead of the ballast is 12.8, after ballast is 4.0. The voltage readings vary everytime I check. I bypassed the ballast and am only getting 10 volts to the + terminal on the coil????
The alternator is wired correctly I think, #2 wire goes to + terminal on the coil and when removed it doesnt effect any readings.
The coil is 12v w/o resistor so, the way I understand it, it needs to have a resistor ahead of it.
I am only getting 4 volts to the coil today and had 6v last night.
The points are opening and closing as they should. Test light shows power to the coil + terminal. No power to the - terminal or the high power wire to the dist. cap.
