Assuming points ignition, with the key on, the engine NOT running and the points open, the + terminal of the coil should read battery voltage to ground. With the points closed the + terminal of the coil should read around 8 or 9 volts to ground.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
