    The red power from the distributor was connected to the red below with an add on wire (it was unplugged unlike the pic below, I plugged it back in as seen to power the CDI).

    Which red should I connect the red distributor wire to? There is no red on the original diagram to the distributor.

    On the original wiring there was a red wire just below the relay board with a rubber covered Male spade. That connected to a rubber covered female spade that went to the middle terminal of the CD plug. That circuit is switched 12v (ie ignition on) that is what needs to connect to red pertronix wire. I have no idea what previous mechanics have done to that wiring.
