That's correct. The yellow wire can be left in place on the starter solenoid and won't hurt anything since you have taped up the end that used to connect to the + side of the coil. The purple wire attached to the starter solenoid needs to remain in place unchanged since that's the one responsible for cranking the engine regardless of the type of distributor.
