2nd. gen female plug to fit 1 gen dizzy

Does anyone know of a female plug somewhere on a 86 fc that would plug into the male plugs coming out of a 1st. gen dizzy .. I hate to start cutting the wires on the pickup to splice a different plug into the line and I don't have and 1st. gen resources close by .Thanks gerald

What exactly are you trying to do?

What year did you get the distributor out of? Are you using the factory ignitors? (On the 1981-1985 Distributor, they're about 1.5" by 1" rectangle by half an inch thick. Stamped with the Mitsubishi logo and the part number, "J109.")

That should use standard 1/4" spade terminals. They are in a "T" shape and there are numerous connectors like this on the FB, FC, and many other cars in general.

There are a couple ways to get these to trigger an FC coil.

https://www.rx7club.com/1st-generation-specific-1979-1985-18/2gcdfis-w-tt-transistor-trick-write-up-simplified-design-483858/ (Involves some soldering and custom electronics.)
https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...hreadid=243350 (Straight install without custom electronics.)
There have been methods where people have used CDI boxes (MSD, Jacobs, Crane, etc.) as well.

But what are you trying to do here?

I have every thing done I just installed a first gen dizzy in a 86 fc for out of car use ( see port valves in the new member tec section )I have all my coils and igniters from the 86 and wired in to work with the first gen dizzy but I was hoping that there would be a female plug somewhere on the 86 body that would fit my 1st. gen dizzy plugs not sure what year the dizzy is but it has two flat two wire plugs coming out of it I was just hoping that somewhere on my 86 there would be a female plug like that (so I wouldn't need to cut my dizzy wires to do the connection )

Would the 'other side" of the harness do you any good at all?
If you want,I can see if I have a Crappy harness that has the female side of the CAS connector.I may be able to Cut it off and give ya enough wire so you can Make up or integrate it into your harness.
let me know.Ok?
Cheers Dave.

That would be great my coils will be fairly close to the dizzy so if there is enough wire on the plugs all I will need is 1 connection at the coil plugs. I can mickey anything for now just for the running stand but for the final wiring it would make it nice and clean . It needs to be for the 1st. gen dizzy which has 2 , 2 wire female connectors on the harness side ...thanks
