The positive term is the one that goes to the ign. switch on Chevys. On GMC it is the oposit.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.

Most coils had a + right next to the terminal and some even had a - on the other post. Cast into the plastic that is the top. Not a lot of resistance so "reading" the Ohms is bit iffy. Coils are not expensive so if you can not tell then look at a new one it should be marked.

I am refering to an "original" 6volt coil, and it does not appear to be marked. Also I am wondering where the horn relay is supposed to be mounted? Scott
