Installing pertronix ignitor
I am trying to install a pertronix ignitor in my 73T(mfi).
The car has the stock Permatune CD box and bosch coil. Doe anyone have experience with this upgrade? How do I wire the ignitor to the Permatune box? Do I need to upgrade the coil? Anything else I should be aware of? Thanks, in advance. |

Red wire goes to ignition switch +12v. Should be available on your engine fuse panel, bottom fuse. Black wire goes where the points used to connect.
Be aware - - Instructions on some ignitor models are incorrect and tell you to connect to the coil. That doesn't work for CDI - Make sure you get the little wheel seated properly
