The high side of a 12 volt coil will produce between 20,000 and 40,000 volt depending on the windings in the coil. I belive most common tractor coils run near 20,000 volts. Your battery voltage enters on one post of the coil. When the points are closed (connecting to ground) the current flows through the low side of the coil to ground. This produces a magnetic field inside the coil. When the points open it disconnects this circuit. At this point the magnetic field begins to collapse. The battery voltage is still pushing (voltage is pressure) on both the high and low side. The collapsing magnetic field allows a current flow out the high side of the coil. Due to the ratio of windings the collasping magnetic field pushs enough out to jump the gap at the spark plug.

My Ford Golden Jubilee - by Troy Estes. This article is about my '53 Ford Jubilee and a story that starts with taking the tractor to my brother's Starter/Alternator Rebuilding shop for a wiring fix. The generator was shot as well as all the wiring. I dropped off the tractor expecting a transformation from a 6 volt to a 12 volt system utilizing the original generator housing, and a total rewiring of the whole tractor. The front end center pin bushing was worn also so I ask that they replace it if they had time. Well, that�s wha
