Not getting power out of the coil. It was a working coil when I swapped it. I have continuity thru the coil to the lug on the distributor, but no ground to the engine block. If I check the ground from the distributor to the negative cable, I have continuity. I have a wire going into the distributor, and a wire on the block side of the distributor, grounding to the block. Do I need to run a ground wire from the outboard terminal, on the distributor, direct to the negative battery cable. What will that do to the wiring at the distributor?
This ran fine with 12v, and I have switched to 6v. Didn't do anything to the wiring from the negative side of the coil. (Switched to 6v coil)
Also the wiring diagram shows a polarity reversing switch. I don't seem to have one. Is it necessary?
Thanks, in advance. This has me puzzled. BTW, 46 Chevy.
