I'm getting a good 12.8V at the positive coil post. I re-routed the engine ground cable, and still have a weak spark. Compression seems OK just by pressing my thumb over the spark plug hole. It's hard to believe that it won't even cough a little. Even when the timing was off you'd get backfire or something. Starter fluid had no effect either, and it doesn't take much to get that stuff to burn. What are the symptoms of a bad coil. Mine checked out indoors, but it's cold outside. I'm really grasping at straws right now.
