Jeff,
Attached is a picture of what my coils look like. The picture with the braided wires (2) was posted by mumbles and is :
(his words) I think “this is a Pal/Ranger style coil and you can see the braided lead going to ground. The solder terminal has a similar lead.”
Yes, I have tested per your instructions and this coil is DOA. It has a positive lead (to the points) and a ground. 3rd wire is the high tension lead to the spark plug.
My other coils tests just fine. Thanks for the advice on getting a good solder joint down without too much heat to the coil.
Best Regards,
