old school power
got a 67 318 valiant and there is no spark going to my coil. im getting power to the (+) side but when i turn it over, nothing no power comes out of the coil.
You have stock points or some electronic conversion?
Points? See if they are opening / closing. Many ways to do this, put a test lamp on the coil -- and crank engine, lamp should blink. Take off cap, bump engine 'til points closed, then manually open with a screwdriver, see if they spark.
Most common problem is points/ condenser.
Also it's really common on old cars that the points are not opening due to the material that contacts the cam lobes in the distributor has actually worn down so much the points do not open anymore, so starting where 67Dart273 suggested may be best at this point.
