Cj7 iron duke. No spark.

If your coil is in the cap, make sure the metal pin (rotor bushing) is making contact with the rotor. If that is all good, make sure all your wiring is right. Seems like there are a lot of wiring diagrams on google.

This is the new coil but the other on was fried . I don't know if it is supposed to b but the middle terminal on the coil is constantly grounded. Is that normal?

Here is the coil

If you mean the coil pin in the middle is resting on the rotor then yes. If you can pull the cap but leave all the little primary wires connected, see if you have spark between that center coil pin and ground (with a small gap).

Sorry it took me so long to get back with yall. I've been busy anyways I've done everything everyone recommended and still no spark. If I take the distributor out and test it I get spark from the coil but nothing once it's in the engine .

Also I bought a new alternator and installed it but whenever I try to hook the main positive to the terminal it sparks really bad , for some reason it's grounding out. I have put 2 alternators on and both so the same.
