What would it fry, if anything?
Trying to help him find out why he has weak spark from his coil and the car won't fire unless jumping the positive coil post to starter relay positive, which we only did once for about 2 seconds just to test.
He has the battery in the trunk, and has hooked the IGN 1 start wire to a toggle switch. Gonna probably replace the ignition switch in the column, but want to find any other problems first.
Ballast resistors tested good, all three he had. Tested and tried two different coils as well. Gonna trace through the system and check all ground, plus add a ground strap from engine to fire wall. I think he bought a battery cable, would a braided strap be better?
Any advice is appreciated.
