    I've got a 1967 FLH, it has a Mallory electronic ignition and a Accel super coil. I replaced the the OEM HD electronic ign coil that appeared to be bad because of the melting/oozing stuff coming out of the side next to the plug wire connection with the new Accel. No spark at the plugs. How can I check the Mallory unit without replacing it?

    try check for volts or ohms , just to see if it's open or closed
