Re: wiring Pertronix Igniter III

The side of the coil with the + or - that goes to the distributor will always match the ground on every gasoline vehicle made.

That works the other way when you drag an old rig home and don't know how to hook the battery too. Usually the coil wires have not been disturbed on a rig that has been sitting intact for a period of time.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
