Help-'STILL NEED HELP"

[JOHN12]

Just bought a 1979 Merc 20 HP

Replaced the "switch box" as the wires were corroded.

Can anyone tell me:
The four coil wire are solid blue & solid blue with white stripe and solid green& solid green with white stripe.

Which are the negative and whic are positive and how do I know which coil they go too??




Thanks
John

#1 coil--green = + green/w = -
#2 coil--blue- = + blue/w- = -

Thanks

Which is # 1 and which is #2

I assume the top cyclinder is # one!

I do have them wired as yor outline but still a "very" weak spark.

Any ideas??

Serial # 5610546, 20 hp is it 1979??
