But  don't forget that the wires on the ignition coil should be  reversed
also.  (Assuming they were reversed before.)  Although  the engine will run
with them reversed, you'll get somewhat easier starting  and better fuel
mileage with them the right way around.  For an  original coil on a positive
ground car, the SW terminal should get the  white wire from the harness, and
the CB terminal gets the wire from the  distributor.



Thanks Randall,
The coil wires are reversed presently and are on my list if I get up enough  
nerve to let the sparks fly.
Cheers,
Darrell
