Okay, does any one have a pic of their coil and how its wired? I get no spark from the plug and my starter seems to be dragging for no apparent reason.

more info - year, motor size, auto or manual, the usual stuff.

Sorry about that, I wrote that in a moment of pure frustration. Anyway, it's an 87 MM w/ a 2.0 carbed and 5 spd. manual. I had rebuilt the Engine roughly 5 months ago and had to have surgery, a few friends got together to complete the install and even though they are good hearted friends they are by far not good techs. lol. They did set all the vacuum lines correctly just not the coil, starter and distributer. my question goes like this: i need the wiring set up on the coil and the little white thing next to the coil. what colors go where on both of those? when there is power I used a test light to check for hot and both posts are showing hot? Yet I'm getting absolutely NO fire to the plugs. What is wrong here? The coil I have is the stock style "square" coil 2 post. If anyone has a picture of this the way its supposed to be wired I would love to see it. As far as I know this is all I need to get my baby going...... Please, PLEASE help.
