this is an electrAmotive, not electrOmotive (tecII and tecIII guys) I called them and they told me I was on my own because when they sold them back in the day, they had a modified front cover and crank trigger. not the distributor pick up I have.

 

the ones marked M+ and M- appear to go to the pick on the distributor and I know the points C+ and C- go to the mallory coil, and IGN should go to a wire hooked to the ignition switch so its not on all the time. but, what does the one marked PTS go to? as you can see, I have a later style distributor without points. also, on the front there is a red two pronged plug marked RPM, does that go to a limiter? there is also a single plug on the front marked TACH, which wire would go there? this is going into a 1980 280zx

 

sorry for all the questions, I obviously bought this used and did not get an instruction manual with it, lol! thanks in advance guys!
