Wanted - a picture!

Post by saintjamesy89 »

Hi all,

GT/1.9 8v carb owners, does anyone have a picture of the wiring arrangement of the top ot the ignition coil? I drew a diagram when I removed mine but cannot find it anywhere. I can't remember which of the four wires go where. I seem to remember them being different colours.

Cheers.

i dont have a schematic to hand, but all you will need to get the car going is a switched live feed coming out of the main loom,
( you will find this with a test light and ignition on ), connect this to the positive + side of the coil,

then one of the spade terminals ( i think with a white sleeve ) from the electronic module/distributor, connect this to the negative - side of the coil
