I am having a very difficult time with my '73 1F. I had it running a few weeks ago and then it stopped working. I had burned the points at this point as well so I decided to upgrade to electronic ignition at that time.
Now I have minimal voltage to the coil +/- 4 volts with the key on. Battery has 12.5 volts. Engine cranks but no spark at the coil or wires.
Current setup is a Pertronix II coil and electronic ignition. I also swapped in a spare ignition switch but no change.
I've checked the grounds for the battery and they're good.
Help!! I'm at a complete loss for this.
Update:
I was able to get the truck started by running a hot wire from the + battery terminal to + terminal on coil. I also replaced the ignition fuse before hot wiring it and it didn't fix the issue.
