Subject:alternator to ignition coil???

Hi,

Ive been having intermittent starting problems on my
87 digifant.  today it died again at work and i didnt
have my voltmeter with me so i decided to bridge a
wire from the alternator to the ignition coil.  the
coil suddenly got power...  so at least ive narrowed
it down to the power supply to the coil.

my question:  am i risking any kind of coil or ecu
damage by driving home with the wire attached from the
alt to the coil?

thanks,

jeff
