thought it would be best to get a second opinion on my wiring,

as my rev counter doesnt work and i cant seem to get it to work

this green wire coming off the gte loom is currently running to the top right spade on the coil.....

and where it is plugged to

and i am running my ign live from the old coil plug

now all runs well except my rev dial..... this is where the problem starts.

i have the green wire from my original loom which used to go to the coil plug blanked off at the moment. and when i connect it to the coil it cuts the engine out?!

im sure you conect it to the green wire from the gte loom bud providing you got the right coil for the loom to plug in to

yeah thats what i thought, but that green wire has to go to the coil to make it run
