I have a 1970 with a 302 and am still running points style iginition. I have read all the previous post on this but still can fix my problem. I am on my third coil in 3 months (all stock coils). I have only owned it 4 months and the previous owner did not tell me of any ingintion problems.
-The resistor wire reads 2.0-2.2 ohms at the firewall junction.
-Motor off - The resitor wire reads 7.8v with the key in the run position BUT only with the motor not running.
-Motor running - If you start the motor the resistor wire at the firewall juntion reads 12v with the key in both the start and run position.
-The hot wire going to the coil constantly reads 12v in the start and run position.
Thanks for your help,
paul
