Ignition wires

Hi all,
after restoring my 73 corona (18R),I"m having a problem with where the coil wires go..Yea I tagged'em but 1 tag came off and another one is smudged and i cant read it:headbang:...the engine cranks but doesnt start..yea i got fuel.
1)coming from the distributor is a black wire..this goes through the harness and comes out at the coil to go to the?????...positive side of the coil???

2) coming from the starter is a black/red wire....this goes through the harness and comes out at the coil to go to the?????...positive side of the coil??

3) coming out of the harness at the coil is a black/yellow wire,this goes to the (-) side at the resistor???

This is how it is hooked up.

I don't have spark
yes- the fuse is good
yes- it was running before
i do have a manual but it doesnt show the wire colors
I'm continuing to make sure all grounds are properly grounded and testing all hot wires are good according to manual

Thanks
