GO RIGHT TO THE COIL THE BLACK WIRE ON THE LEFT IS IT TAKE A METER TO IT AND IF IT STARTS TO JUMP UP AND DOWN WITH ENGINE RUNNING THAT IS IT REAL EASY

The green wire is the tach wire for my remote starter, and works great. The black wire is the one you need to tap, also in some instruction manuals its the negative side of the coil.
