power (AMPS) the ignition coil
Looking online I see max of 8 amps in general. But unless that honda has point ignition, I would suggest finding and interrupting the lead to the sensor that detects engine revolution in the distributer, or shut down power to the distributor completely. There used to be some circuit designs that were unhappy if the load (your coil) was removed, I have no idea if the honda is one of them.

If your honda has a carb, then interrupt the fuel shutoff solenoid if there is one as well. Last thing you need is to pull gas into the engine with no spark.

And yes, hurry up and do some more work and post pics. The suspense is killing us.
