would you believe i've got 3 multimeters ... and not one works! my "old reliable" one went dead on me since i last used it -- fuse is fine and new batteries--only gives me a continuity tone. (((( the other two are small pocket ones that need the watch size batteries and i couldn't get out to get any today. been thinking abotu the grounds. tried cranking it with the coil neg. side grounded on the frame along with the sparkplug with no luck. the harness/battery ground is still hooked to the frame. i'll try it direct though, as you never know with old rusty stuff like this. I also put an1156 lightbulb across the wires feeding the coil and got zip.
