I'm fighting an ignition problem. Right now I'm troubleshooting a coil problem. 
The coil is brand new. The car has been switched to negative ground during 
extensive rework. To test the coil I am trying this: 12 volts direct from (+) 
side of battery to (+) side of coil. Hold the high tension wire (the one that 
goes to the distributor) just off the block (to check for spark). Then 
disconnect the (-) lead from the coil. I get a spark off the high tension wire, 
but it appears very weak. And when I re-attach everything through the 
distributor I get no spark to the plugs. Any ideas?

Joe
