The "pick up" coil is an internal part to your distributor, in later model cars still using one, it acts as a static winding that your module inside the distributor can act toghther to "sense", in the old days would be your points opening and closing. Many a ign module has been replaced due to this part failing, it's relitivly cheap, 93 GM 350, $9.99 but it is a bit of a pain to install, remove the distributor, mark the base with a marker, as not to lose the timing, keeping in mind the position of the rotor cap, the mark, and the direction of the rotor is essential repalacing the distributor so no timing is needed if done properly. Remove the pin below the distributor gear, so the dist shaft it self pulls out of the case, your pick up coil is under the plate that the module screws to. replacement is reverse of removal. Remember, have all parts that can be easily taken out, module, ECM, among other sensors and such as to test them at an auto zone or if you have a multi-tool, the specs are in most manuals, do it yourself. BTW this part is called "DI" unit.
