hello everyone,

Im' trying to install an petronix ignitor in my 010

This part is done

now I have to connect the 2 wires to the Judson and I'm confused Sad

In the petronix documentation, they say the black wire go to the negative side of the coil and the red wire to the positive side of the coil

But on the Judson magneto, I'm' not sure what is the + and what is the - Sad
