Reply on ignition coil for 1972 Chrysler 105 h.p.

[hawk21_2001]

the ignition coil is mounted with a bracket to a tan box that says Magnapower. But like I said I am not getting fire to any plugs so I figured I'd change the coil. I was trying to start it off of my truck battery while it was running. It was showing 14 Volts DC and I followed it all the way up and every thing read out fine on my volt meter. The only thing I couldn't check was my ignition coil because it had to be running. Unless anyone knows a way I could check the coil while it's not running. Please help.<br /><br /> Thanks a bunch,<br /> Hawk

Take and run the blue wire to 12 volts on the terminal block. D/c the black and white wire from the dist.<br /><br />Take the large wire off the coil and put a smaller wire inside the coil where the old large wire was.<br /><br />Hold this small wire about 1/2 in from the block and then touch the black and white wire against the block.<br /><br />The coil should spark.<br /><br />If the coil does spark..the problem will lie inside your dist..probebly the points.<br /><br />TMD
