Problems wiring coil...Please help

[hntr006]

OK.....I have a brand new centech wiring harness. I am wiring the motor
(302) to run it. The soleniod is wired and the motor turns over with the turn of the key. I have the pertronix electronic ignition inside the distributor. There are 3 wires for the coil, violet (says "start"), blue (says "ign pwr"), and white (says "coil+"). I have tried hooking these wires up in every possible way but can't get any fire. I tried looking at the instruction manual that came with the centech harness and it does not really help. If you can help me please respond to this thread. Thanks

so you are running a starter w/o a solinoid attached correct?? (old stock one)

now on the solinoiod looking left to right:
Positive battery cable
"S" post
"I" post
Wire to starter

so the start(violet) is the "S" and the "I" is the (blue)ignition

Then the +coil goes to the + coil and the ignitor has two wires coming out of the dist red to pos and black to neg...

now if you have a different starter then the stock one then its different

did i help?
