List -



After much resistance, I broke down and bought a Pertronix system for my
positive ground BJ8.  I installed the system last evening but was
confused about where to attach the wire that is to go to the "ignition
switch wire".  (One wire goes to the negative side of the coil which is
properly in place.)  There is a connection point on top of the starter
solenoid that I tried but nothing.  I tried the positive side of the
coil, nothing.  One unique situation I came across when installing the
new Flame Thrower coil - the bracket attaching it to the generator was
too large so as a temporary fix, I used some rubber to wrap the coil so
that it would fit snug.  Is there a grounding connectivity between the
coil body and the generator bracket?  HELP!
