I've got a wiring question. I have a 1985 125hp force with a Prestolite ignition. I have two wiring diagrams to reference, and they're both confusing. I have two CDI units, and I'm not sure how to tell which is type A or B. I've been having problems with top end RPM. Changing from a 17 to 15 prop didn't change the RPM much at all.
Old setup:
#1 Orange
#2 Red
#3 Orange
#4 Red
Current setup: (Haven't tested)
#1 Orange
#2 Red
#3 Red
#4 Orange
Is this correct?
Schematic One: (Notice that one wire is labeled both red and orange on the bottom)

Not much labeling on these two, the wires come out and cross over? Where the bottom one crosses, exactly in the middle, it says Red so it is impossible to tell.
