Thanks for the info. It doesnt show if power should come out of more than 1 prong on the plug. Also if my timing belt broke will I get power thru the coil thanks again guys

First what engine and how many miles?
What is the problem that caused you to replace the coil. I assume it will not start. If this is the case then do you have spark?

I do believe that only 1 coil terminal should get power.

If the timing belt broke the rotor inside the distirbutor will not turn as the engine is being cranked over.
