Best Answer

The automotive distributor is a passive pass-through device. It simply directs

the output of the coil to each spark plug in turn. The voltage out of the

distributor should be the same as the voltage out of the top of the coil.

DO NOT TRY TO MEASURE IT ! It's several thousand volts, you definitely

don't have anything around the house that can measure that kind of voltage,

it only comes out of the coil or the distributor in short pulses anyway, and

once you take that pulse through an arm or up into a finger, you will jump

in the air and sing Sweet Sue. You will go in the house for a beverage, and

you will forget all about the car. Trust me.
