1. Distributor wiring (score: 1): Author: "bschwart@postoffice.pacbell.net"; Date: Wed, 11 Sep 2002 11:39:59 -0400; I just purchased a later model Distributor from a 1500 with the integral ignition module on the side to use on my 1970 1300 Spitfire. I am wiring the whole car up myself so that isn t a problem. The; /html/spitfires/2002-09/msg00149.html (8,462 bytes)
2. RE: Distributor wiring (score: 1): Author: <ralemen@cableone.net>; Date: Wed, 11 Sep 2002 11:37:24 -0700; Barry, I believe that the current ballast resistor on the car should be OK in lieu of the wire as on the later ones like mine. You should not need to touch anything there. Sounds like you want to use; /html/spitfires/2002-09/msg00151.html (9,622 bytes)

Re: Distributor wiring (score: 1): Author: Donald H Locker <dhl@chelseamsl.com>; Date: Wed, 11 Sep 2002 22:45:42 -0400 (EDT); I don't know which wiring diascratches you are looking at, but the MkIV/1500 schematics show either a resistor wire or a resistor, not both. You should be able to measure the primary resistance of th; /html/spitfires/2002-09/msg00159.html (9,226 bytes)

Re: Distributor wiring (score: 1): Author: "ptegler@cablespeed" <ptegler@cablespeed.com>; Date: Thu, 12 Sep 2002 07:17:30 -0400; The resistor he is referring to is wired across the distributor only. NOT the ballast for the coil. If you look at late model schematics, you'll see a resistor right next to the distributor with both; /html/spitfires/2002-09/msg00160.html (9,944 bytes)

6. Re: Distributor wiring (score: 1): Author: Joe Curry <spitlist@gte.net>; Date: Thu, 12 Sep 2002 08:25:35 -0700; I believe it is there to properly bias the electronics in the unit that is attached to the side of the Dizzy. In other words it is absolutely necessary! Joe /// spitfires@autox.team.net mailing list; /html/spitfires/2002-09/msg00166.html (8,161 bytes)
7. Re: Distributor wiring (score: 1): Author: Donald H Locker <dhl@chelseamsl.com>; Date: Thu, 12 Sep 2002 11:12:43 -0400 (EDT); Thanks, Paul. I guess I don't have late enough schematics; none of mine show that resistor. .... Oops. Just looked and my [factory] book is MkIV, not MkIV/1500. So, picking Haynes Brains, I see the "; /html/spitfires/2002-09/msg00167.html (9,748 bytes)
8. RE: Distributor wiring (score: 1): Author: <ralemen@cableone.net>; Date: Thu, 12 Sep 2002 12:18:41 -0700; The drive resistor value (it's actually marked on it) is 9.5 ohm. That's all I can contribute as that the only part I have. I did see a schematic once (me thinks it must have been on the web) of one; /html/spitfires/2002-09/msg00168.html (10,036 bytes)

10. Re: Distributor wiring (score: 1): Author: Donald H Locker <dhl@chelseamsl.com>; Date: Fri, 13 Sep 2002 11:36:51 -0400 (EDT); The 9.5 ohm value is useful, but are there two at 9.5 each? One 9.5 with a center (or other fraction) tap? Three terminals means two resistors, in one form or another (or some solid-state active dev; /html/spitfires/2002-09/msg00188.html (8,325 bytes)

RE: Distributor wiring (score: 1): Author: <ralemen@cableone.net>; Date: Fri, 13 Sep 2002 12:03:56 -0700; The actual device looks like a "bog standard" power resistor with a plate for mounting on the chassis. Just two terminals. Unless of course it is using ground through the casing but does not look the; /html/spitfires/2002-09/msg00190.html (8,716 bytes)
12. Re: Distributor wiring (score: 1): Author: Donald H Locker <dhl@chelseamsl.com>; Date: Fri, 13 Sep 2002 21:27:50 -0400 (EDT); This is the drive resistor, right? Located somewhere near the front of the engine, near the alternator? My schematics and pictures show three leads.
