Shouldn't the voltage at the coil test the same voltage as it is at the battery?
Would this difference in the voltage, as mentioned, cause the engine to run rough on a 1987 Ranger with a 2.9 engine?
What most likely, do think, would be causing this difference in voltage, maybe, a weak ignition switch?
Also, shouldn't a good battery test around 12.5 volts, or so?
This battery has plenty of power for starting the Ranger.
So, it should have enough power for powering the coil and the engine's electrical system, too, shouldn't it?
