Ok, so I hooked it up the way you said, ground wires and all, and still no spark. Hooking it up that way puts the black wire from the magneto directly into the condenser and that's all...there's only one wire on the condenser, and of course the outside of it is grounded. I still don't see how this would work, as it seems the power is just going into the condenser and that's it. How would the electricity ever get to the coil? Sorry, I feel like I'm being a pain, but I'm just not getting it.....
