Hi Hamilton,
If you have continuity between wires 1 and 2 don't tie them together. check to see if you have continuity between either 1 or 2 and the black wire and wire 3. if 3 and the black wire have continuity, and based on the location, I believe that 2 and 3 should be tied together and 1 connects to the heavier lead wire.
Leave slack, consider getting some red GLPT insulating varnish and dribble it over the area of the coil that is exposed from taking the tape off. I expect that you may have some bare wire from the arcing and smoke that you saw. Have a layer of insulation between the coil and all splices.
Hope this helps.
