Do you have spark coming from coil and also power and ground at coil
think we have power at the coil it shocked my husband
Do you have spark from distributor. And is the distributor turning
Check your coil again. Pull the coil wire off the distributor and see if you have a good spark going to distributor. If not I would check ignition module mounted beside ignition coil
think we replace the ignition module but will check on that thank you will let you know about ready to sell and be done, but with the motor, new parts, and tires a lot in it.
Is there a way to test the ignition module, The one on there looks like it has bubble on the black side, like it has been hot. Hate to spend the money if that is not the trouble, we live on fixed income
