I've got a diagram here for some wiring that shows me 85 on the left side and 86 on the right side. The relay I'm using has 86 on the left and 85 on the right. Did they mess up this diagram, should I wire it up how the diagram shows? (+12v on the left side, which they show as 85, -Output during crank on the right side , which they show as 86)

They are both coil pins so it does not matter unless the coil has a built in diode. Most do not.
