Just recently installed a digital LED voltmeter. I hooked it up to the (anti theft) kill switch wire to my coil, on my 55 2nd pickup. It reads 8.5 volts when the ignition is on and 9.5 when engine is running. I assume it is showing the voltage from the resistor to the coil. My normal voltmeter shows 14+/- volts when engine is running. Could this digital meter be used to indicate any problems or defective ignition points, coil, etc?
