My buddy's car just quit running. It's a 1974 1.8L. He said he only has 1 volt coming from the coil. When he disconnected the yellow wire going from the dual relay to the negative side of the coil the voltage is 12.7. Is this a bad dual relay?

Why would there be a wire from a relay to the - side of the coil? I don't know L jet but that doesn't sound right to me. Should only be points to -side, and tach wire to - side.
