For cars using factory coil (i.e. armored cable from ignition switch to coil)
with only one small terminal on coil:
Using these instructions you will not cut into the armored cable. Attach the optional red diode leads (with
ring terminal) to the red lead coming from the ignitor module. Since the diodes are directional make sure
you install these leads as shown in diagram A on the reverse side. Locate the green wire coming off the
started solenoid (if there
is no green wire it will be
the smallest gauge wire).
