Run + from ignitor to + on coil.
Run - from ignitor to - on coil.
On the trailing ignitor, the + faces the front of truck, - faces rear. Use that as a reference for the leading ignitor.
Coils need +12V to fire. Run + from fuse box to + on each coil. You didn't say you did that so I bet that's why no spark. On the fuse box wire it to the 2nd one from the front, it's marked Engine on the fuse box cover and is 15amps. Use a large gauge wire for minimal loss, like 8 gauge.

Thank you Brad... I'm did not run a power because I had the coils hooked just like they were stock... all I did was run wire from the coils to ignitors and I got nothing.... I read a post from Klaus that mentioned connecting the black wire with the yellow stripe and the yellow wire with black strip but I'm not sure how to since they both exit the 6post plug and go into the ignition relay but the one is y-off to a coil.... I wish someone could see what I'm working with its all factory wiring so I know there's no Jerry rigged stuff going on, there was a post on here that had some good detail and some photos with it but the photos got removed. I'm not sure exactly what's going on with this I ran a volt meter and I had power at the ignitor plugs with the key on but it won't give spark any more help would be awesome and Just for your own personal satisfaction I'm rocking your coil overs and I absolutely love them

Black with yellow stripe is + power and the other end goes to the fuse box if you follow it. Run this wire to the + terminal on one coil and make a jumper wire to connect it to the other coil's + terminal.
Yellow with green stripe goes to - trailing coil terminal. It's the tachometer.
Besides that wire up the ignitors to coils per my previous post and you should be good to go.
Remember the factory wiring is for a points distributor w/resistors and w/o ignitors so you have to rewire accordingly.
Glad you like the coilovers!
