There's power on the positive side of the coil, and power on the negative side - until I connect the points wire to the negative side. Then there's no power. Seems to me there should be power. Normal, not normal? What is making the primary circuit open when I connect the points? Open points? But not all the time, only when the points are open. But this is all the time, so I guess I have to check the points for the 10th time to make sure they close. What else? Thanks.
