Default Re: Not getting power to coil

Take off distributor cap, leave plug wires on it.

Take the red and black wires of the Pertronix off of the coil and do this with them. (You will have to reconnect the negative battery cable I told you to disconnect)


1. Connect a jumper wire from the Ignitor Plate to battery ground post. this is the plate inside the distributor that the Pertronix stuff is mounted to.
2. Connect the Red wire from the Ignitor to the battery positive terminal along with the red lead from a volt meter.
3. Attach the Black wire form the Ignitor to the black lead of the voltmeter.
4. Move or rotate the magnet sleeve (black round piece) in front of the Ignitor Module (black box), the voltmeter should vary from battery voltage to 0 volts and back. So should see 12V.....0......12V....0....as you as you rotate it by hand or crank motor.
