Well guys bad news. Three strikes and you're out. It's more than the coil. It's the module and the distributor cap as well. Let me explain.
My friend came over this afternoon with his test light, 2 sets of jumper wires red and black, Voltmeter, old 4 inch long Phillips head screw driver and 2 drawings.
He started with the battery. It was good. Then moved over to field side of the Alternator to the Alternator regulator to the ignition ballast to the coil and to the ignition switch terminals IGN and IGN2 and everything was good.
Then he checked the coil using the test light, screw driver and a black jumper wire. If the coil is good when he hits the remote starter the test light lights up indicating that the coil is good. But It did not light up. That means the coil was fried. (strike one)
How he did this is he unhooked the coil wire from the distributor. Plugged in the screw driver, clipped the lead from the test light to the screw driver then hooked the tip of the test light to a jumper wire and then to a ground.
Then he unhooked the red and black wires from the coil. Hooked the test light to the black wire and ran a jumper wire from the pointed tip to the + side of the battery. From the - side of the battery he ran a jumper wire and clipped it to the base of the module.
Then he ran a jumper wire from the + side of the battery to the red wire from the module. As he touched the jumper wire to the red wire from the module he hit the remote starter at the same time. The test light came on and should have started blinking on and off as the engine turned but it did not. Meaning the module was also fried. (strike 2)
He then inspected the rotor cap and found what looked like black burn marks on the the top where the rotor button touches the distributor cap where the coil wire attaches and the contact points for the plugs had the same look as the other contact points in the distributor cap did as well. (strike 3)
He also told me to check the ohms and the continuity of the plug wires or just go ahead and replace all the spark plug wires as well just to be safe.
He also said leave the Ignition Ballast where it is but don't connect it back to the coil.
Well guys, I'm screwed. About a 250-300 dollar fix for me.
