(Re)wiring question-->Accel distributor/GM ign module...
I have an old Accel distributor with a magnetic pickup and the GM 4 pin (two on the left, two on the right) ignition module. I just wired it to work with a new MSD 6AL box and Blaster coil. But I'm having problems getting the engine to run (see the thread on (Bad) Optima Battery for details if interested). My problem is I don't recall how the Accel ignition module was wired when I was just using a regular coil (no 6AL). The two pins on the right side go to the magnetic pickup, so that won't change. But how do I wire the other two pins and the coil? I tried Accel's (MrGasket's) website and it was no help, as they don't provide any tech info on these distributors like MSD does. I know what a lot of you are going to say--ditch the Accel and buy a new MSD  . That's my plan, I just haven't done it yet. I don't care much for the Accel unit, but it worked before, so I'd like to get it working again before I throw another unknown into the equation by installing a new distributor. Thanks for any help you can off on wiring up this GM ignition module!
