Well I had put on a new coil, cap & rotor. Cap and rotor were needed and the coil had something in it that thunked when I shook it so replacing those components probably was ok anyhow.
After putting on the new coil I hooked up my special homemade LED test light. Wasn't sure it would do as well as it did but I wanted to eliminate the rest of the circuitry before replacing the EI.
Worked perfect. Pulsed with the spark. showed that the ignition switch was OK and when I hooked it up to the point side of coil it blinked when I was getting spark and went dark when the engine died. This little tool I dreamed up while on the road will take a long term spot in my tool box. All it is, is a Radio Shack LED put into a piece of angle iron with leads on it so I can clamp it where I can see.
