well im pretty crappy with electrical systems but my distributor is keeping a charge even with the key off. it has a fairly new solinoid. any ideas on what to check and how to go about it. it is a stock style distributor with vacuum advance on a 289.

How are you checking to see that the distributor is getting constant power?
