yes i agree with red..turn the engine by hand to get the dist. cam in the right position. if the points are damaged like pitted or something it is best to install new ones.. when you left the key on you may of damaged the coil also.. if there are any signs of swelling or oil leakage best to replace that also. on your truck there should not be a wire from the coil to the starter unless it has been converted to a electric start solenoid or something. the wire from the coil neg - should go to the points the coil + should go to a resistor or ing. switch.. if you put the wire from the coil positive+ to the starter the engine will start. but not turn off and will burn the points
