I am a far cry from being an auto-electric expert. I can tell you the service procedure for testing the pick-up coil in the distributor. Connect an ohmmeter to the pigtail leads of the distributor, resistance reading should be 150-900 ohms. Another test is to connect one lead from the ohmmeter to ground and the other to either of the pigtail leads. If the meter shows a reading the pick-up coil is bad. I got this information from my blue Motor's manual. In my experience Motor has always been the gold standard of repair manuals.

Same info in the Chrysler manual Jeremy. If you are using an analog ohm meter, you can plug the leads in to the pig tail and as you spin the engine over, the needle will wiggle as the reluctor passes the coil. Think I still got an old lean burn dist. out of Mary's 300 if you wanna try swaping pick-ups.
