ZX dizzy into an 280z


Recommended Posts

Ok... i know this has been covered before but i can't find the link.

I have a distributor which came of a 77 280z engine, but when opening the cap... has 2 pickup coils inside. 4 blue wires come out of the dizzy. two of the wires merge into one... so you have three wires... all blue.. braided.. down to connectors someobdy crimped on... One big "O" type connector and two small "o" type connectors. Now my 280 dizzy had two wires... one green one red.

 

So how do i wire up the 77 dizzy to my 280z? I'll post pics once i get my site up.

Edit... I tried hookn' upt the two small terminals together.. and then the big one to where the red wire went.. the two small to where the green wire went.. it started.. but when i gave it gas.. the timing mark when from 15 to past O TDC

Hey guys... sorry to waste the space... you can delete this post. I got the dizzy workn' this morning, runs like a champ :D And thanks to a new air leak on my carb... backfires like one too lol :wink:

Anyway i had it wired backwards (didn't know it would run that way) I switched the two wires around after unbraiding that whole mess of wires.

Happy motoring.

Ed
