You have a battery which in turns powers the system by way of a switch and a wire from that going to the coil which then in turn is hooked to the points which when they open cause a spark to the plugs. A simple hot wire from the ignition side of the battery as in none ground side to the ignition side of the coil as in non- point side of the coil will tell you if the problem is in the distributor or the system back to the battery including the switch [Reply]   [No Email]

I'd swap a coil from another machine and check   [Reply]  [No Email]
