Alright, pardon my ignorance...

The green wire from an autometer tach goes to the negative of the coil. Where EXACTLY is everyone splicing into that at (b/c there's two wires, red and yellow??) And I guess I should ask, which side of the coil is the negative? I assume the positive is the side going to the distributor?

Thanks,
