akumazeto Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 Ok so I search the forums on this and I cant find it.. Before I installed the MSD my tach and wires were correct. Im taking out the MSD and going back to stock but I cant figure out the wires and where is should be connected. Can anyone please tell me what wires connect to what?? I have a l28 in my 240z w the e12-80 distributor. There is a Green and white wire, 2 black and white wires the two wires for the e12-80 and my coil.... One last thing.. Do i need the ballast resistor or can I bypass it?? Thanks everyone and hope someone can tell me what wires go to where Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMortensen Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 God those stock tachs are a nightmare. Can't help you with that part, other than to suggest an aftermarket gauge. Wiring diagrams for the distributor can be seen here: http://www.jrdemers.com/280ZX/distributor/distributor.html. It's a super easy two wire hookup. Yes, bypass the ballast resistor.
