Not Getting 12 Volts at Coil

There are two under there. One is the turn signal switch. One is the ignition switch. You want the ignition switch.

I understand the difference in the turn signal switch and the ignition switch because I took apart the steering column a few days ago. Since I could not press out the pin holding the steering wheel locking mechanism, I could not get to the ignition switch. I feel my problem is either the ignition switch (don't know how to get to it to replace it) or my distributor. You say I want the ignition switch. How? What do I need to do with it and how do I get to it?

I have checked the gap in my distributor. It was .008. Yes the rotor is turning. I have spark at the plugs, just not enough.

I need to eliminate the ignition switch or the distributor as my problem. How do I run wires from a remote starter to completely remove the ignition switch from the equation? If someone has done this before, please explain how to run wires from the starter, ballast, and battery to the remote starter. (I do not have a remoter starter, but I will buy one if you think this test is necessary to rule out the ignition switch as my problem.)

If I do start it with a remote starter, how do you kill it after it runs?
