Slightly turn the crank and recheck the voltage at the coil... bet its back up to 12V. Keep in mind that the pertronix module, just like the old points ground the negative terminal of the coil through the resistor, ergo, low voltage. If you turn the crank to the point where the "pertronix silicon points" are open, the voltage will go back up to 12V. The fact that you have spark says that the ignition is all good... but you need to check timing.
