Welcome!
The new-member area is mostly for saying HI to each other.
I'm gonna move this to the 'general tech' area so more people are likely to notice it & respond.
The coil should not be related to your problem.
Exactly how did you check the alternator? It really sounds like your alternator is NOT OK.

Had 24 amps coming off main lead on altanater and 12 volts off of 4prong connecter when car running. I think it may be a short some were. When I disconect 4 prong connecter battery light goes off.

Won't it charge up to 13.5 or so when it's running?
Start pulling fuses until the 24 amp load goes down. See if it'll charge up then.
