My newly acquired TR3A has been converted to negative ground, and it ran when it left the PO.

I don't understand ... the white wire should go to the + terminal on the coil, not the condensor. Sounds like there is not a good connection; /html/triumphs/2006-11/msg00480.html (9,578 bytes)

The flex wire has been replaced with a piece of white wire that has been left sufficiently long so as to coil once and absorb the flex.

It is the post in the center, and the nut on top, that are grounded.
