Re: Not getting power to coil
Yes, the black sleeve. Those are the instructions from Pertronix. I agree they did not explain why they say "by hand or crank motor". You will have to crank motor I guess, I'm not up on this test. Just be careful that wires are safe from touching anything or get caught in a moving part. Rig it up, shouldn't have to crank much to get a reading on MM. It's either going to stay on zero or stay on 12V during rotation if it's bad.
Do you have a ballast resistor?
Does coil say internally resisted or externally resisted on it?
How long has the motor been running good and starting good. days, months, years?
FYI: Older (first generation) Pertronix would burn out if key left on.
