kinda disappointed in you guys

You could have given it at least a full day before starting this kind of thread. You asked a question on a Friday evening when alot of members might be out instead of sitting at home on their computer, then express disappointment on a Saturday morning. But regardless of what day it is, give it a little time. As for your problem, if you hooked up that thin red wire to the wire that was originally attached to the "+" side of your coil that should solve your problem. If that doesn't work, you have other electrical problems to deal with.
