Wanting to hook up a 8207 coil.
My 1990 XJ has 4 wires to the stock coil.
Per MSDs idiot techs which told me about hooking up a different model coil with a custom special connector which isn't available....I was told to hook both the 5v and 12v lines to positive and the 2 grounds to the ground.
Hit the key and the coil heated up very hot.
Doesn't make sense to hook a 5v AND 12v line to the same screw.
Tried looking up the 1990 wiring diagram but I only have the 1988 FSM which looks the same.
Anyone have wiring color codes to hooking up a 2 screw coil to a 4 wire system??
