40cpe..I was going to ship the tack back tomorrow. I will unpack it and try grounding the #5 wire to the engine and will get back to you with the results.
The instructions received from Westach show both wires to the coil on a {positive} ground setup. With the wire that goes to the distributor being used as a ground.
The {negative} ground setup shows the #5 grounded as you say. Cant hurt to try it.
