To clarify the 3.5-4.2 volt at the coil: that is with engine running. When testing in the garage with engine stopped, you can expect to measure about 3.0, plus or minus a few tenths of a volt. (6 volt battery) Later when engine is running, points open 20% of the time, it will jump up to the 3.5-4.2.
