I think I've figured out what I need to do to correctly hook up my Pertronix II. Out of my ignition switch comes a red wire (with green stripe) and a black wire (also with green stripe) that join at one male bullet connector. From there, a single, larger pink wire goes to the firewall connector. This is the resistance wire, is it not? (It has the same textured "jacket" as the wire going to the coil.)
I just need to make sure I understand all of this correctly before I go and do something I'll regret:
If this is the resistance wire, I would need to get some 18 ga. wire and a female bullet connector. Remove the pink wire (cutting at firewall harness) and also remove the wire going to the coil from the harness. Drill a hole in the firewall, install grommet, and feed new wire from ignition switch through and connect directly to the coil at the + side. This would be my 12V source, correct? Then, install Pertronix red wire to the + and black to the - side.
Please let me know if this is right or wrong.
