Thanks for the info.

Just to be sure (sorry for what may be a silly question) the red wire that would normally go into the distributor I just connect a wire from the battery to that location? Does sending power to it straight from the battery mimic the ignition being in the on position? Like a bypass?

Thank you again and I'll give it a shot tomorrow afternoon. Here's hoping!!
