As stated in the title. I bought a 1979 atc70, which is missing everything wiring wise, except the sparkplug/coil and the stator with the white plastic 4 wire plug (1 black felt covered wire, 1 white, 1 blue, and 1 green).
At the risk of sounding like a tool, I will admit that wiring and all things electrical make my head spin. I have a deep seeded mental block with anything electrical. I tried looking at the official wiring diagrams for the atc70 wiring and started getting brain lock.
All I want to do is wire this thing so i can get it running, even without a kill switch. I fully plan do the wiring system correctly once I can confirm this thing will run. I am hoping that with someones guidance I can start to get a grasp of how this simple system works and will tip toe me into understanding wiring systems a little more (baby steps). I want this bike to run first and foremost, but eventually i want an understanding of how it all works. I tried searching for something at my level, and came up empty (nothing at a 5 year olds level i guess, heh)
If someone could tell me what I am asking is possible and which wires to connect to the coil and which to connect to a ground to make this thing fire, you will be my ATC hero! I can provide pictures if needed.
P.S. I tried posting this to the technical section and could not find a 'post' button. So I posted here as a last resort.
Thank you kindly
