Tyson,
The Bentley manual wiring diagram for 1500 (1977 California, Federal and
Canadian spec) Midgets shows two WLG wires, both from the +coil. One goes
to the coil resistor, the other to the starter solenoid. Other connections
on the starter solenoid switch are: Starter, battery plus (along with
several brown wires) and a White/red that is your ignition starter switch.
The WLG would get power once the key is switched on. Hope this helps.
