Usually the bypass allows for the full voltage of a 12 volt system (I know you are running 24) to go to the coil when cranking and then drops it to 9 or 9.6 volts when running...5.4 in the cranking mode is WAY LOW and does indicate a very weak spark...less than half of what would normally be there in the start mode...

I would pull the resistor and hook to the one battery at least for testing...in the long run, I would run a voltage reducer...24 to 12 volt unit...which I believe you ordered a bit ago...


Jon, I do not have a resistor, as stated above I am running a resistorless coil. I am also using a voltage reducer from 24 to 12.

Tim, I looked at it all but I will look at it again, never hurts and I may have missed something. But everything is new, dizzy, cap, rotor, points and condensor.
