Power to the coil comes from the ignition switch through the resistor on the firewall to the coil. During cranking, an additional feed from the "I" terminal on the starter solenoid bypasses the resistor.

If the resistor is bad, it should start then stall as soon as you release the key.

Let us know what you find.

Lou Manglass.
