I would start w the simples and track all wires both hot and grounds. Then if all wires check good then I'd try a diff coil. If you got hot going to the coil and nothing coming from it, I'd suspect either bad grounding (can't have electricity flow w out ground) or bad coil. Also look in ads for harbor freight, they usually have a coupon for free multi meter. If not I think I got one. I'd send ya my cheapie but I built it at a military school. Keep us posted. |
