I hate to tell you but those Crimp on connectors will fail and will cause you all kinds of troubles you shuold replace each of those with a good solder point.
Black/yellow on the harness side is 12v switched, on the coil side it is L Green.

thanks for the website RETed. After checking the MSD are wired correctly like your website

i notice i have two prongs with two wires , one black and one green(both with yellow stripes) and it is not connected.... where should i connect two of those wires to actually?

i soldered the pink wire of the microtech to the tan wire coming out from the silver sleeve and grey/blue wire of the microtech to the pink wire on coming out from the silver sleeve and the black wire is not connected to anything....

thanks all
