[AT] grounded coil

[Steve W.]

Maybe you should actually work on an engine or two. GM has used a 
grounded coil for years, As has Chrysler, Ford and just about any other 
auto manufacturer. Add in most 2 strokes and any of the small engines 
out there that use a coil mounted near the flywheel to power the 
ignition. They are ALL grounded on one side. They have to be to complete 
the circuit.
