  1. Turn ignition switch on. Connect negative voltmeter lead to a good ground and positive lead to ignition coil positive terminal. Voltage reading should be 12 volts.
  2. Next, connect voltmeter positive lead to ignition coil negative terminal, with negative lead still connected to ground. Voltage should still be 12 volts.
  3. Unplug wiring connector from distributor. Using a 1.5 volt dry cell battery, connect battery positive pole to Pink wire terminal and negative pole to White wire terminal. Do NOT apply voltage for more than 5 seconds. Voltage at negative terminal of ignition coil should now read 5 volts less than battery voltage. If not, replace ignitor.
