NEED HELP ASAP on ignition

You should be able to run a clip lead from the starter relay battery stud to the coil +, jump the relay and it should run FOR A TEST

This will bypass the coil resistor, and you don't want to run it for more than a minute or it will overheat the coil You can tap your hand on the coil and check

Sounds like you are on the right track here finally.

Once again, the thing which is wrong in the posted shop manual, is the labeling of the bulkhead connector on the ENGINE side. If you go by the labeling on the instrument panel diagram, you should be OK.
