@maok Gotcha. I didn't realize that is what it was called. I did that and am getting no spark. Is it normal for the condenser to just die all of a sudden? Also, I didn't realize the Red Ram engine had 2 sets of points.

@maok Forgive my ignorance... How do I check the spark from the coil high tension lead to ground?

@Plymouthy Adams Do you know what the continuity should be? Primary I have 1.2 ohms tested at 200 and secondary I have 7.80 tested at 20k

I was driving my 1953 Dodge Coronet with the 241 Red Ram HEMI today and all of a sudden I heard a small pop and the car died. It will crank, but I am getting no spark. Could I have "popped" my coil? It is 6volt and the coil is not original (Rock Auto). I removed the coil and am wondering if there is an easy way to check the coil. Also, do any auto parts stores carry 6 volt coils? Does it have to be a certain type of 6v coil? Thanks for your insight!
