Quote: The coil is a. Coil. Power on pos goes thru coil and show on the neg terminal. That creates a field when neg is grounded. Remove the gnd and field collapses and jumps to secondary out to plugs ( spark)
ok. I always wondered how the volage going in circles around the middle would create a charge...that makes sense though.
so if the coil is grounded, and then the ground is removed, it SHOULD fire, right? and if it doesn't then it's most likely someting broken in the coil?
I'll try that before hooking the ignition box back up to it and cranking away again to see if ti was the tach or not.
