After rebuilding my v8 I'm stuck with a few electrical issues.
I have wired up the coil/ballast to ground and ignition +12 volt and connected the ht lead to the center of the dizzy.
I have hooked up a timing strobe to one of the ht leads and cranked the engine for a bit but I don't get any flashes on the strobe. Have I missed something or does anyone have any suggestions?
I have also connected the condenser as the side of the dizzy casing back to the coil/ballast too
When I crank and measure the voltage on the coil/ballast input from the ignition live it drops from 12.9v with ignition on to 9.8v while cranking. Not sure if this is normal but it's definitely getting power
Thanks.
