Ignition Coil

Post by KrisB »

Need some help.

I've got a new coil and struggling with which wires go where. I took it off a long time ago so have no reference of what goes where.

Narrowed it down from pics on here to Green and Red/Black on the negative side and a Black on the positive. Theres an extra black but after test on cable coming up with it being an earth. Can someone please look or tell me if this does go on positive and there should be 2 on the positive?

Thanks

on mine there are red and green connected to one side and 2 blacks connected to the other. one black disappears into the loom just below the coil, the other joins a small bit of loom that goes into the plenum, i'm assuming this is to the ignition amp
