List members,
I need to know how to wire in a bluebird distibutor using
the Stanza loom.
I have put the ignition wire to coil positive and the ground
wire to coil neg. but what do I do with the resistor and condensor
wires that are used in the conventional distributor loom?
Nick,
You remove both of the wires on the ballast resister and
join them together and
insulate them as the constant 12v ignition feed to the coil comes through them
when the ignition switch is in the "On" position. Without the ballast resistor
wires connected, the +ve coil wire only gets 12v with the
ignition key in the "Start" position and and nothing in the "On" position
so if you don't join the resister wires the engine will start and then die as
soon as you disengage the starter. Any other spare wires should just be well
insulated with tape.
I don't understand your question about the condenser
wire as there is only one wire from a condenser that goes to the connector
block on a battery/ign dizzy and the condenser should be still attached
to the old dizzy. As a precaution the Bluebird electronic dizzy should
have a separate earth fitted from one of the mounting bolts at the timing
cover if an oil seal and gasket are used as it is in the L20B
engine.
I also would like to know how to wire in an internally
regulated altenator, but this is not as important right now...
In what car? a Stanza already has an internally regulated
alternator so it's just a straight swap over. If it's not for a Stanza (Bosch 14v 40A) let me know
what from and to and what brand both the old and new alternators
are.
Terry
Thanks in advance
Nick
