Hi Andy,
The voltage at the resistor will be lower when the points are closed than
when they are open due to the higher current going through it to the coil.
* Put a jumper wire from points terminal on the coil to ground.
* Measure the voltage between ground and the resistor to coil
terminal . As I remember, It should read around 6 to 6.9 volts.

How much voltage should get through the ballast resistor going to the
points?
