Well, I replaced the wires, took the dist apart and made sure nothing was bad, and have re-done the rotor button.

I replaced the relay and the resistor, the ignition coil, and the only thing that I have not done is replace the ignition keyhole.

The coil don't seem to get any sparking action, but at the relay I am getting 12V. It seems to not be making it from the relay to the coil.

I have tested it in between and am getting good voltage, but nothing pops the engine awake.

Any Idears?

Instead of checking for voltage, put a 12 volt test light on each of those test points and make sure the light is bright. You may have high resistance somewhere. If you're using a voltmeter, it won't show this kind of problem, cuz the internal impedance of the meter is so high it operates on very low current and won't cause a line voltage drop.

I found the problem. Broken wire going to the condensor. Replaced and Zoom Zoom. It's running.
