Anyone know which wire is the + side of the coil? On my 93 the coil has a red and orange wire. Which one is the +. I tried using a test light, but neither was hot with the car off and both were hot with the car running. Using either wire, my tach works but when I stomp on it it gets up to about 3500 and the tach needle goes nuts.

Any ideas?
