Re: Positive or negative ground?

Let me back up on this and say that the primary windings(low voltage), and secondary windings (high voltage) are always joined to the negative coil terminal going to the points. The positive terminal still goes to the battery (or ignition switch).

Re: Positive or negative ground?

Lol. Thank you Don. I spent yesterday reading a forum arguing about which one went to the battery and after 50 or so posts... it still wasn't clear what was correct. I will run the positive lead to the battery then.

I appreciate all the help.
