Default Re: Not getting power to coil

Pertronix. There are good and bad reviews. The earlier versions had a lot of trouble. If I am helping someone with just words, which is VERY difficult, I have to do it a certain way, like you do. Unfortunately, I can't trust everything a person says and I have to have tests before I start jumping ahead or guessing. It's real easy to shoot out a dozen guesses. So let me know if there is spark at a spark plug. Maybe this one time you can look for a visual spark ay a plug like I described. I've been doing it that way for more than 60 years. We will establish spark and get truck started. Does not matter if fuel delivery is bad. Getting spark is No. 1 priority.
If you find no spark at a plug you can either revert back to points or we can try to troubleshoot the Pertronix/buy another.
