    Default Bosch GT40 ignition coil to 1G-GTE

    hey guys, just wondering if anyone has hooked up an aftermarket 2 point coil in a 1g? There are 3 wires coming out of coil, and unsure how to hook up as there is only 2 points on the coil i have? Any help would be REALLY appreciated...

    Thanks
    Josh

    what colour are the 1g coil wires

    do a continuity test on the wires

    see if any have very low like close to zero resistance cause 2 wires might be together

    stock coil has internal ballast resistor bypass?

    if this is an orange GT40 bosch coil and you want to run it with electronic ignition.. throw it out get a black bosch coil instead

    I should hope your coil has three connections.. spark has to get out somewhere
