Ok,
I must be silly...
I have burned (like on fire) 2 condensers/points in the distributor in the last 2 hours...happens as soon as I energize the ignition system...
I forgot (how can that happen after 20 years of owning a land rover) how the wires go off the coil...
I have a negative ground 1971 IIA. Lucas 45d distributor.
From the negative side of the lucas coil, I should plug in the condensor wire? Right?
On the positive side I should plug in the HT lead and the fuel shut off solenoid for the weber carb right?
Then what is my problem? and why am I not blowing fuses instead of smoking components?
Your help is appreciated.
Best,
Griswald
