i now have pictures of what i think went to the coil if im right, im thinking the loose wire off this relay goes to the tach out on the megajolt via the diodes off the coil packs? http://i1189.photobucket.com/albums/z436/karlos01/fc0f8982.jpg http://i1189.photobucket.com/albums/z436/karlos01/be0d02c...
