Need Ignition System Diagram, Bob and Sparkies

Okay, don't laugh, I had computer problems lately (Carbonite is doing a backup but it takes a while) and cant find any of the basic battery powered coil distributor ignition (points and condenser type) wiring diagrams (JPEG). I KNOW how they are wired and work, I just cant find any of the many nice pictures/drawings I used to have that show the coil wiring internals (HV Primary and LV Secondary windings) and then the points and condenser etc.

I found many Bing Images and diagrams but they didn't show the insides of the coil (the autotransformer connections). I cant believe I cant find any after all these years grrrrrrrr

I'm building up an Ignition System display board for an exhibit with actual components wired up and working but beside them I want nice looking diagrams because my hand drawn pictures look like crap lol

I found several wiring diagrams (points, condenser, distributor, switch etc) but none that showed the windings and connections INSIDE the coil.

Any help out there with pictures or sources???

Ol John T and all
 
Thanks Bob, I had searched Bing Images but not Google yet and I may have to use one of those. I still didn't see my favorite old one yet. Early next week my Carbonite backup will be complete and hopefully its in there somewhere.

primary should be high current, low voltage, secondary being high voltage low current... if you are talking an auto transformer..
 
That's correct, the ignition coils low voltage 12 volt Primary handles about 4 amps while the High Voltage Secondary may be 5000 to 10,000 volts but very low current........I ended up using one of the Google images Bob noted.

I bought it because both my son and I got a discount when he referred me. Its worth 50 bucks a year to me to have all my important files backed up at a remote cloud location. I have a couple 1 Terrabyte USB remote hard drives I use for some backup (some on Microsoft One Drive or Sky Drive) and I have most the same files on my laptop as on my desktop (another form of backup), but having a few total failures over the years has made me gun shy and I just sleep better with multiple back ups, Im just wired that way lol

All the total crashes Ive had on different computers BUT NEVER LOST AN E MAIL. When I get a new computer I log on and there are all my several years of e mails as they are NOT stored on my hard drive, but on servers or clouds etc. That's when I hear how Lois Lerner at the IRS PLUS six other dudes conveniently LOST their e mails and cant get them back (plus took fifth amendment) with all the millions of dollars of high tech back up they have I THINK YEAH RIGHT GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
