rayaapp2 Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 My Dwell is sitting at 22 instead of the 35-41. The pertronix unit has counter sunk screws on both sides to eliminate adjustment. Im not sure how to get any more coil saturation. Im having a hard time accelerating to freeway speeds and using the upper RPM range. I set my idle, set my timing and decided to check dwell after everything checked out. This just doesnt sound correct? HELP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This just doesnt sound correct? HELP? It seems I had miss-wired the pertronix unit. I will need to confirm the repair with the dwell meter next chance I have. I had the pertronix unit connected on the distributor side of the the dropping resister(ballast if you prefer). You would think installation instructions would have come with the unit. At least its correct now and the pertronix unit seems to be unharmed. Before: Correct wiring: Edited March 24, 2010 by rayaapp2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
