[Merv and or Loretta]

As long as the metal you are expecting the coil wire to spark to is
grounded, you have a good test. The problem is upstream.... good luck!

> Everything in the distributor looks fairly new, I made sure there was no
corrosion on the points.  I am checking for spark by pulling the wire that
goes from the coil to the distributor (at the dist end) and checking to see
if the wire arcs to metal when turning it over.
