ignition problems

if my old man was still alive i wouldnt have to ask any questions on this site at all, and i hope nothing is wrong with the meter its a very nice craftsman meter and i put brand new batterys in it before using it, the multimeter, and yes i read 13.5 volts on the positive side of the battery with the key on and the meter grounded to the negative side of battery. an i am meausuring in VDC.
I am sure i could get by with the 5 pin harness i have, but its hacked to **** and very old all the connections at the ballast are rusty and crappy looking. it would make it easier for me to get a brand new electronic ignition wiring harness and to tear all the old crap out and start fresh with new wires, and i printed of your diagrams, thanks by the way.
And i already know where the blue wire from my altenator goes, it goes straight back to the voltage regulator and from there it goes across the fire wall and ties straight into the ECU power wire. I think getting rid of this 4 prong ballast would help simplify this for me as well.
