    ignition wiring issue w/ coil

    Probably a very stupid question but, which side of a coil is positive and or negative. Have a Dyna coil neither post is labled. Have checked manual but no wire schematic for 82 FXR shovelhead. I guess that year fell through the cracks because of the engine change to Evo. Very tough bike to find info on. I don't want to short out the factory ignition module.

     on most modern coils, it doesn't matter. if it's not labeled, either post can be used

    When there are no markings, select one side to be positive and attach all the wires that would be to the positive post to that side.
