Kimo,
The rain finally stopped and I got a chance to look under the bonnet. The
White wire that breaks out of the harness with the White/Blue is connected to
the + terminal of the coil. The White/Blue wire is left unconnected (taped back
onto the harness). The double White/Black wire is connected to the - side of
the coil (tachometer signal). A White/Green wire that breaks out of the harness
with the White/Black is left unconnected (again, taped back onto the harness).
The Red wire from the Pertronix is connected to the coil + and the Black wire
from the Pertronix is connected to the coil -. As they say, YMMV, but it works
for me.
