slant six..is my distributor going bad?

You may want to check out why your ammeter is discharging. Is that at idle or what? If so that's probably normal with a bad/slow idle. If it's discharging while running faster then you have to fix it first before you tackle your spark problem. Your firing order is 153624 clockwise.
yes it at idle and it flys to the right pegging past the D when you gas her up. what would i check or do to fix this?
