sanka · 05-18-2002, 04:51 PM

hi... so

first of all i am from germany... i bought a mustang here.. in usa... i am gonna ship it home when i leave from my exchange...

I fixed my mustang up so far... the last thing i am planing to do .. is to install an electronic ignition to improve performance and gas milage.

i went to advence auto parts and they looked a couple things up for me... (i haven't bought it yet but i'll propably go to soon)

my PROBLEM IS :

the module that comes with the ignition hooks up to the distributor and to the car... there are 4 (5) outgoing wires .. one is a ground and the other one goes the batterie another one is going to the coil right ?!?!.. and i don't know where the other 2 (3) are going ???
they said i have to buy a book for 72 to whatever mustangs becaus thats when they had their first electronic ignitions... and i have to look up where those wires go...

hmm has somebody any ideas how i hook this systen up ????

THANKS VERY MUCH !!!!!!!

do you have any

What type of ignition do you have???

72 Mustangs still had points.

Let me know and I'm sure if I don't know where they go, someone else here on the board will.

Get a Petronix converter. It'll cost you 60-70 bucks, take about 15 minutes, and do away with yout points. Its a great mod.
