Wiring is very simple. You have 2 red/white wires that went to the 2 coils. Just connect one or both to one side of the accel coil. From the points, you have a grey wire and an orange wire............connect both of these wires together to the other side of the coil primary. If the accel coil primary is less tha 4 ohms, then you should install a ballast resistor to bring up the primary to 4 ohms. Ballast can be installed on either side of the coil and the coil primary has no polarity.
