Investigating why I'm not getting spark out of the coil. While investigating, I've found that, while the screws that hold the ignition module down are grounded, the ground post on it is not (the other post is getting +12V though). Should it be grounded, or does it float until told?

We Need More Details of the Engine / Car you're Writing about, in order to properly Help you.

 

Kind Regards.
