[QUOTE="sportster80, post: 117561, member: 21281"] I have tried the distributor grounded to the coil and running both the coil and the distributor directly to the battery. There was a way to test the distributor by wiring it to the battery and spinning it checking for voltage spikes and drops, which I did and it to me tested okay. The issue is I could never get fire, with points in it, with an electronic ignition conversion in the distributor and now with a brand new one. Maybe I need some type of ballast resistor in the system that's missing. I guess I can call pertronix and see if they can help me, but the issue is that Im miles away from this thing so I can only work on it on saturday evenings and maybe sunday evenings. It was my brothers and he passed away and Im trying to help my sister in law. I feel like he was having the same issue as I found the boxes where he installed the new points, wires etc in his garage. Thats why I say the wires "look new". [/QUOTE]
