OK, now test the center two for continuity. Do you have an ohmeter in addition to a continuity tester?

The ohms reading on what range? My 87 fsm says 920-1120ohms. If you are on the 1kohm scale, you are about right. What are the ohms on the two outer terminals in your pic?

Are you dead sure the dizzy is turning when you crank it? If so, I'd swap the 87 spark box back in.

The rotor is spinning I had the cap off when I was bump starting it. Well now that takes me back to the ign wiring I took a picture of whats coming out. I do not have the White wire in the Starion/Monty grafting point As discribed
On the forum Mine is Solid black.
I did test the wires and hooked them up from the readings I got. If my wires seem to be right then maybe it is the Spark box (still have the old one). I have another dizzy coming and I can test by spinning it out of the motor.

The thought occurs to me that I set up the bible instructions for the wiring graft based on an 88-89 starion harness. I never looked at an 87 harness for differences. I'll do a little research and get back to you.

87 starquest wiring at the B38 connector:

14 pole connector in two rows of 7, catch up, numbered l-r

1. Y yellow
2. BY black yellow stripe - ground
3. B black - battery +
4. L blue - Ign on 12v+
5. not used
6. RB red black stripe - battery + add 15a inline fuse
7. not used
8. LgB light green black stripe - wire to speedo reed switch
9. YG yellow green stripe - not used (fake boost pressure)
10. not used
11. BY black yellow stripe - ground
12. BR black red stripe - add jumper wire to read trouble codes.
13. not used
14. not used

EDIT: ALL THE ABOVE IS WRONG. SEE BELOW.

The spark box has a couple of connections thru the b38, but they are covered in the above, using the 87 spark box.

One test you have not reported on. On the dizzy harness connector, there are 3 wires, white, black, and black/yellow. With a voltmeter set on the lowest range you have, connect the leads to the white and black, and spin the dizzy by hand. You should see (using dc volts) a small value varying above and below zero, which is the a/c voltage the dizzy generates as it turns. [color:"red"] [/color] [color:"red"] [/color]

This is were it all goes gray, My plug only has 10 wires.
The wires you discribe are in the plug, but I do not have the 14 wire plug. Here is the connector on both sides.
I did notice there is only one black with red in my connector as well.
