Hi all, I've done my share of research on the forum and I can't seem to find the answer, most likely because it is a simple question and might be common knowledge.
We've got yellow, blue and black-white wires coming off the coils, and I gotta be honest, I have no smoking clue how to test these. I've managed to discover that the coil loops are about 4.5 ohms and 14k ohms, which I think means they should be good. Beyond that, I'm not sure how to troubleshoot, it stems from a lack of basic understanding about the ignition system. Could someone please give me a child-like explanation about the wires around the ignition system, including the key? And what should I be testing for in the black-white wires? And points? What are points?
I'm heading out to the garage right now to triple check that my connections are solid.
Thanks for your help!
