Electronic Ignition

Post by Geoffro »

Hi fellas, I've got a 78 model rangie and I've just changed my dizzy from points to electronic. Out of the module there is three wires, white, white with black tracer and black. I'm using the white wire, what do the other 2 do?
The electronic ignition is out of a 86 model and is currently running off the white wire off the module to the coil, is this all I need to do?
Also there is a tyre valve poking out of the cap on the clutch master I was wondering what that was for as well.
Thanks guys.

OK , I dunno why I do this.
according to the 88 manual.
White is power from coil + or should be 12 volts.
white black to coil - negative. This is the signal.
Black is sure to be earth although the 88 manual does not show it..

The tyre valve on the clutch master cylinder is for pressure bleeding the clutch. They could be a pain to bleed some times and pumping a bit of air pressure into it sometimes helps, or so I am told. I tried that with my 78 model but it did not work very well.
