67 ford 3400 gaser c prefix. I just installed a new pertonics electronic ignition and coil. Very straight forward and easy. However, I discovered a random wire coming down from a cluster near my battery tray. It can only reach my coil, distributor or maybe just reach the starter but not the solenoid. It is a constant hot wire with ignition in on position. None of my plugs have spark. Should it be hooked to my coil? I think it's a blueish color. My distributor also had an internal ground wire that is not mentioned in directions or manual but is attached to the new electronic ignition plate.
I have negative and positive from distributor to coil respective posts. I have wire from starter solenoid to positive side of coil. As far as I know this is exactly the same as it was unless I had a brain lapse.
On another note and maybe a new post, my alternator is wired right to my battery. Not sure this is right but tractor ran perfectly fine up until I replaced the points and coil.
Thanks for any help.
