Re: Smokin
Gene,
Sit down with a pencil and a piece of paper and draw out your wiring diagram. Trace each wire. Label the color of the wires and show all the components, such as the ignition switch and ammeter and coil and points. Then, with the battery disconnected, measure the resistance to ground of each wire. When you do this see that the points are open or put a piece of paper between the points. Also do it with the points closed. Measure the resistance to ground with the ignition switch off and with the ignition switch on. The problem should become clear.
