can someone tell me which side of the coil the wire to the distributor bolts to? Is it the + or - side? I bought a 1 1/2 ton stake truck and I'm trying to get it started. Thanks in advance.

It is best to ID the year and make of the truck you are working on. If it is a '55 and earlier GMC, Bill's info is no good.

Thanks for the help. It's a 52 chevy 1 1/2 ton with a 216 six cyl. Another quest. how difficult is it to rebuild a fuel pump with the glass bowl on the top of the pump.
