converting points to no points
What do I have to do to modify an 83 distributor to work on my 79.
|
Install the distributor.
Remove ballast resisters from coil wiring. Install distributor to coil wire harness. -billy |

i'll sell you a kit if you want, pm me.

I've got the stuff to convert my REPU, but I also plan to swap the coils, since everyone here said to swap the coils at the same time.
Just another project on my list. |
When you say ballast resistors, do you mean the fusable links. I have the Haynes manual recommended in the mazspeed ignition swap link. It does not show fusable links but resistors where the fusable links are. Very confusing. Does anybody have pistures of this conversion?

The resistors are simply coiled wire springs that are surrounded by a ceramic cover, in the strut tower.
