We are at our wits end. I need helping figuring out why Powerwire for coil is grounded. Where does that purple wire go?

Here is everyhting else i tried:


1. Replaced - Rotator cap, button, sparkplug wires and coil
2. Jumpered out engagement switch and cutout switch
3. Checked safety switch and line
4. Isolated tack ometer
5. Put a fire light on it - it fired a couple of times when i isolated the tack

Thank you! We tracked that down, still no luck. Every once in a while it will start and run for a few but not consistent. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!!!
