Merlin, do you know if there is a replacement coil for the black wire (secondary) with the red ignition coils ??  I need one
Thanks

Raymond, I believe Dane has said a red wire coil will work for a black wire coil but not vice versa.

Thanks Lew, I should make a point to document more  of this stuff down on paper, Its hard to commit everything to memory, especially if its of a technical nature.  My black secondary coil supplies dried up... but I got a few red ones around here...

Today, I found a red coil with a red wire in my pile, and after trying 3 other coils on my "Brandy new 1973 completely,  refurbished 175 jack Pinerm,,,
Some Beach, I obtained sprark !

Just another hurdle,

Raymond, If you need a black wire coil, I have a new one I am not going to use. Later Gary

Thanks Gary I appreciate your offer, Another Pogger is already shipping me one.:)
  I was just so glad to see spark !!  The motoplat was purchased in 1979, installed on the bike, and still it wouldn't run. So this was a brand new motoplat, never used for 26 years.  Kinda frustrating.. seeing I bought the bike knowing this (twice now)and  have roughly 2 Gees in it and no spark :(
