also there is a wire under the dash with white peice and a little brass end inside is this the resistor wire? because that peice broke and the wire isnt together now
this may sound dumb but do you have the battery hooked up backwards ? why i ask this is because i barrowed a bat from a friend and just put it in as if it was my old battery but the post's wer swaped around and i put it on - to the + side and the + side on the - side and yes it wuold kick over and when i would stop kicking it over it would sound like it wanted to fire up long story short i bought the power fire dist insted of buying a new petronix kit
do you have to have a ballast resistor for pertronix? and will any coil do? or do i need a performance coil
full 12Vs...no ballast resistor any coil will do...some people do use a...performance coil. i don't understand the problems you are having... ...bolt in the plate...set air gap...hook up wires correctly... did you remove the dist? ...:Handshake...
You may have a bad ignition switch on the steering column, try hot wiring the the car. Run a wire from positive terminal of battery and hook it to positive on coil then use a jumper wire and jump from positive post on starter solenoid to little post on the side that the starter wire from switch goes to, I believe it is the wire closest to the front of the car. Make sure car is in park Hope this helps
nope i left the distributer in and followed the instructions exactly, i watched the video on youtube for it as well..
the pertronix started working but only 3 of the plugs got spark! put the points back in and she started right up..defective modual?
