Electrical problem
1992 Ford Tempo 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

I am turing the car into a demolition derby car and the ignition was busted out and there is no slide and where the ignition wire harness is all its got is the wires no ending to plug in. I ran my starter right off the solinoid but i need to know what wires i need hooked up to the positive terminal and which ones to ground to get spark and keep the car running.

Do this get a toggle switch hook it to the battery positive post and find 2 red and light green wires in the ignition wiring harness connect this wires together and hook it up on the other end of the toggle switch this will power the coil and distributor and see what happens.
