typically the install is pretty straight forward with the ignition box needing power and ground, then it has 2 outputs to the coil, and then two inputs from the distributor/stock coil. in your case i bet the instrucitons weren much help they giuve since htey use an internal coil car to show how to instlal it.

i beleive you have to splice the two positive wires on teh external coil together, and then run that to the positive input on the accel box, while the stock coil ground wire will handle the ground input to the accel box.

hmmm sounds like that might work may just have to try that. now you say the two posi leads, on runs from the coil to the bat and the other from the bat to the coil but both carry posi signal. is that what you are talkin about?

the 2 thick wires get jumped together thats the 12+
the single wire left is the coil 12- (all at the external oem coil)
