[Spridgets] Wiring to coil & distributor

[Jim Seippel]

With a positive ground car: You have - coming from the ignition switch to
the switched side of the fusebox. You will have a white  wire from the other
side of that fuse to the - terminal of the coil.  From the + terminal of the
coil, you have a white wire with a black tracer that connects to the low
voltage terminal on the distributor. 

If your car has been converted to negative ground. The wiring is the same.
You have to reverse the positive and negative sides of the coil.

If you are purchasing a new coil, be sure to buy one that  does not need an
external ballast resistor.

I'm trying to replace my old distributor which had a Crane electronic
ignition with a distributor with points. Can anyone refresh my memory of
what the wiring to the coil and the distributor should be for the standard
points setup?

Thanks,

Robert
