Try removing the ignition module, usually located right under the coil pack, and having it tested at Auto Zone or Advance Auto Parts.
Testimonial: "Excellent post, new distributor came with a faulty ignitor. Remember to always get the warranty and it is all just a swap out. "
11.g volts sounds a little too low.
Check the battery like this:
Turn on the headlights, then try to start the car.
If the headlights do not dim or go out, then the battery is likely ok.
Check that the battery cable plus post, goes to the starter, Minus post to a good ground, like the engine.
If wiring is ok, then look at the starter solenoid for a good connection, and proper voltage at the starter.
Problem is most likely the Solenoid's bendix gear or starting relay, Have someone bang on the starter while you try to start the car. This usually works by dislodging the bendix gear..
Hope this helps.
