McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
FWIW
 
I believe convention is left coil (Blue wire) is for cylinders 1 & 4.
Right coil (Yellow wire) is for cylinders 2 & 3.

Looking at the contact breaker plate  left  side points are for cylinders 1 & 4 (wire is Blue).
Looking at the contact breaker plate right side points are for cylinders 2 & 3 (wire is yellow).

 

Oddjob:
Doesn't work like that for the Hondaman system Ted, there are 2 other wires you need to jump into the blue and yellow wires, I'll see if I can find the wiring diagram and let you know.

Oddjob:
Can’t find the wiring diagram but looking at it, the blue goes to the blue bullet connector coming up from the points, same for yellow. The purple goes to the blue coming down from the coils and the orange to the yellow. Black to the brake light switch and don’t forget the green must be earthed on the points plate.

I read the post that he was not initially fitting the Hondaman system just running it on points first the when all is good fitting the Hondaman system.
Maybe I misread the intention - I think that's Roo

Green wire - wonder if this is my mistake as I earthed it to frame and didnt run it to the points plate. I will try this tomorrow 👍
