Ping---> Mike Romain
Hi Mike,
Two quick questions.
1. Napa can get me the Accel supercoil. Is there a specific part # I need?
Their catalogue seemed to have the 1 fits all type. $ 60.00 50,000 volt
unit. Also, I use the NAPA brand D. cap / rotor and wires. Can these
handle the voltage increase?
2. My new stock distributor works great! I didn't realize how worn out the
bearings and shaft were on the old one.
Question: The wiring to the old one was direct wired. I'm referring to the
black wire on the distributor with the 2 - 22 gauge wires within. The new
unit came with a two wire plug connector. I just cut the plug end off the
new unit and just spliced the two wires back together just like the old one
was wired. Like I said it's working fine. But, does it matter which wires
you have connected together? I tested the old unit by reversing these two
wires and it seemed to make no difference.
Thanks again for your advice.
Paul

Re: Ping---> Mike Romain
The coil is a one for all that can run on either 12 or 9 volts with a
ballast resistor.
I was told by Accel that with my stock Ford style ignition module, I had
to stay with the ballast wire in my 258 or I would fry the module pretty
fast.
What kind of ignition does yours use? Maybe you can get it to run 12
volts for a real hot spark. ;-)
If the wires coming out of something are both black, then it makes no
matter the order usually.
Yours is a 75 right? My book that was 100% right on for my 86 says you
should have a blue and yellow or maybe a blue and white. The wires
coming out of the distributor should be marked if it matters. Simple
switches sometimes matter, sometimes not.

Oh, I am using OEM wires and cap and rotor. They work really well. I
tried the Accel set and they were crap. The cap arced out in a couple
weeks and most of the ends fell off the wires the first time I changed
the plugs...

I use Bosch wires, cap and rotor.
The wires are nice, they have a metal C clip
that keeps them on real tightly and doesn't deform
when you remove/reinstall plugs.
