Power everywhere, but no spark
Here are the results of todays testing.
Reluctor gap was at .023. Reset to .008
.023 was WAY too much. Surprised it ever ran
Here are the results of todays testing.
Ballast
Dark Blue = 10.9
Coil side of ballast
Key on = 4.7
Cranking = 9.6
"Dark Blue"-----if this was measured "cranking" is OK, if measured "key on, engine stopped" is WAY too low
"Coil side of ballast" is a tad low.
The battery, measured while cranking, should not be below 10.5 minimum. Your coil + figure at 9.6 is way below that, and indicates a drop somewhere.
Since you reset the reluctor gap, and are getting nothing, I'd do the following:
Make/ get two nice clip leads, jumper from the battery to the dark blue terminal on the ballast, AND jumper from the battery to the coil +
If it does not have spark now, then.......
Here are the results of todays testing.
I was unable to check the distributor. I only had one set of hands.
Figure out a way to clip lead the connector to your meter so you can measure it
Consider replacing the pickup coil
ALSO, is this a 2 or 4 terminal resistor? If some of the boxes you tried are "5 pin" they won't work on a 2 pin resistor. You can NOT tell by looking at the box, you must "ohm out" the 5th pin, and see if it's connected to anything in the box.
