Can someone tell me where the points wire is?

[aahuyn]

I got a 1968 (i believe) 55 hp 3 cylinder johnson TRL-10s..

I narrow it down to two possible.. i'm new to the boating thing.. There is 2 yellow wires to the left of the motor (standing behind the prop) and one black wire on the right. which one if the points wire

I did a ignition conversion.. i took a guess that it is the black wire.. so i hook it up to the coil -. I am getting spark.. but the boat would not start.. it sound like it want to but it can't... So I think i got the wrong point wire.. worry to try and burn something.. just want to know forsure before i try the yellow wires..

Don't know about colors, don't have a manual in front of me, maybe this will help. http://www.ishopmarine.com/ishop/js...CatFilter=BRP&eCatSupFldr=supplier-100-005-EJ
