The primary connections on the coil are the two low voltage (the + and -) terminals.
The two secondary connections are the high voltage output nipple, and the outer steel can that Bob M, your above statement is not totally correct as to my understanding of the physical make up of a coil. I agree that the first sentence is correct but leaves off additional connections. The primary windings are connected to the two studs marked + and -. One side of the secondary winding is connected internally to the stud that the ignition (switch)wire goes to and shares this internally with one side of the primary. The other lead on the secondary winding goes to the high tension nipple. With a good multimeter, a coil can be checked to verify which stud is the input for the primary by reading the resistance. From the high tension nipple read to one of the studs and remember the reading, then read to the other stud. The difference will be small. The larger reading is the primary and secondary windings in series. The smaller reading is the secondary winding by itself. The stud where this lower resistance reading occurred is the stud that gets voltage from the switch. I agree that the coil will work when wired incorrectly but if you know different why have less than optimum?

Measuring with Calipers - by Staff. The legs of inside calipers are curved outward at the extremities to facilitate measuring small holes, while outside caliper legs have a large curve inward to increase their capacity for large work. Firm-joint calipers are adjusted approximately by the hands and then set to the feel of the work by tapping them on a metal surface. It is a common practice when opening calipers by this means to tap the top of the joint. It is better, if possible, to tap the inside of the legs, as repeated blo
