I recently bought a junkyard distributor for the baseplate. (The vacuum
advance pin had broken and I had centrif... advance only). AHH! Now I
have to be careful to avoid tickets. My car is a detoxed 80B with a '73
motor. My distributor shell was stock; the replacement was from a '79.
Anyway, an "Allison XR-700" optical chopper electronic ignition device
came with the distributor. I already had an internal aftermarket device
(Ignitor), so I didn't use it. I'd like to save it for later, as it
seems to be usable.... If I can figure out the wires! Out of the
rectangle power unit come 4 wires:
1. A black, 2. A Red, 3. A Purple, 4. the 3-strand cable that connects to
the distributor sensor. Anybody know how the first 3 go? Especially the
purple!
Curiously, Crane makes a unit by the same name. Any relation?
