Morning everyone. New guy here. Here's my problem. Just replaced my 1980 470 Merc. with a reman. motor. I originally installed one of those Pertronix ignitor kits, with coil. Old motor ran before removal. For some reason, when i turn key to on position, the + side of coil is shorting out. It seems when i have the red wire coming off of ignitor pickup, and the main hot wire(purple i believe) together, is when it shorts out. Tried changing coil out with old one. No change. If i remove red wire off coil, and put my main hot wire on coil, i get 12.5v on both sides of coil with key on. Is it possible the Ignitor pickup could be shorting out in distributor? Also, if i run a jumper wire right from the battery to + side of coil, the motor starts, but runs rough. Any thoughts??
