Easy way is to run the large out wire to a ground, one post on the coil to a ground and one to positive. Do not allow the large wire to actually touch the ground, have it just above the ground so that you can see a spark.
Warning: do not touch the large wire while the other are hot. It has a lot votage and could possibly cause you to get injured.

Where is the ignition coil located on a 1994 Mitsubishi Galant?
ignition coil is mounted inside the distributor ,underneath the rotor. BE CAREFULL, the ignition coil to 1994 galant is expensive .study it before just yanking out screws.It has a sensor plate inside and when you undo the screws in haste it comes apart and that controls the computer make break signal to tell were #1 is. Sooooooo, you then get to spend a lot of time figuring out how it goes back together. And guess what nobody but the Japaneese factory knows and now i do.,because i did this accidently. GOOD LUCK!

One of the answers said to replace the pick up coil- what is it and where is it thanks?
The pick up coil is located at the base of the distributor and plugs into the ignition module. The pick up coil's purpose is to sense or "pick up" the pulses of the distributor and tell the ignition module when to fire the spark plugs. The most critical part of the replacement of the pick up coil is to make certain you properly mark the orientation of the distributor to the engine block and the rotor to the distributor base. When you successfully make these markings, you will not need to check your timing when this job is finished.
