Default Re: Car Will Not Start--No Apparent Spark

I got my volt meter out tonight. With the ignition on (i.e., popped out), I'm getting:

6 volts on movable arm with points open (this looks correct)

6 volts on movable arm with points closed (this does not look correct, but I cannot explain it)

6 volts on both sides of the coil

.2 volts on driver side of junction box

0 volts on passenger side of junction box

When I put a jumper across the junction box, I get 0 volts on both sides of the junction box (I cannot explain this)
