This one is a little strange - the day before I tried to start the truck, it started and was running fine. It turns over fine but noted I am not getting fire to the plugs. Changed out the rotor, cap and coil - still not getting fire. I tested with a volt guage - no fire to the positive term on the coil with the ignition on....I haven't checked yet but am thinking I may have a broken wire somewhere. I don't really want to start messing with the wiring if I don't have to. Don't have a wiring diagram. Anyone have any ideas? Where does the positive wire on the coil originate or attach to? Maybe I could just do a by-pass. Any help would be appreciated.

Please disregard! Went out and re-checked the ignition plug on the dash. Started right up! Bad case if the dumb a.... Thanks
