[urq] Re: 3B transplant - No Spark help

[Bob]

The ignition coil wires are supplied in the 3B harness, so from what I
understand you shouldnt HAVE to supply anything from the OE fusebox. But
you will have to supply power via a power relay to the 3B harness.
Sounds like he did that though if the injectors had power.
Im not supplying anything from my OE fuesbox (but then again, mine isnt
running either!)
