Ignition Issues - ‘74 Dart Sport

OK back to basics. That voltage is low, but "workable" for now. You need to find out if you have voltage to the ignition when cranking. The circuit for cranking power is different than "run." So hook your meter to the coil + and turn the key to run. You should see maybe 6--10 volts, not any higher and not much if any lower.

Now crank the engine, using the key, and see what you have. You should have "same as battery" that is whatever the battery itself reads WHEN CRANKING you should have close to that at the coil+
