    Duraspark for the FI install

    Just guessing on this. I have a 3 lug starter solenoid. Two big ones for the battery/ starter wires and one small one for the wire from the ignition switch If I replace it with a 4 lug, I think I have a place to connect the wire from the ford module.

    Duraspark for the FI install

    My guess would be the coil + and the jeep red wire to the bulkhead connector go to my ford ignition module red wire. The blue stock wiring to the starter relay stays where it is. So I have one wire, the white one that is supposed to get to the starter switch; In the diagram its the two wire...

    Duraspark for the FI install

    Wire dilemma number one. Ok from the stock ignition module the plug has a red wire with a white stripe. This has been cut and spliced with two wires. A red factory wire running to the bulkhead connector and going into the cockpit. the other wire spliced on there goes to the positive side of the...

    Duraspark for the FI install

    No offence taken on the jokes. They are funny! I don't complain on funny. I have had a few bad experiences with distributor installs. I have learned to compare old part locations with new ones. Even if I got the oil pump lost wrong I could still have the body in the wrong place and it would not...

    Duraspark for the FI install

    What did I say to make you think she is being patient. She drove me to the parts stores today. Yes the stock 81 distributor has the right plug for the ford harness. I have the motor set to TDC and would be able to install the new one but I would be guessing to the number one plug wire because I...

    Duraspark for the FI install

    Oh Forgot to answer some of the questions. I think one of many reasons the engine bay wire harness was such a mess is they spliced in the old 77 style wiring harness to get all the ignition stuff to 77. So none of the plugs will work. that's why I got the ford harness. The computer, if there was...

I had the exact mod, except 8 cyl for the 69 mustang. little bit of wiring and it was all ready to go. got rid of it all with the car 5 years ago. that would have come in handy today. Just have to figure out where the two...

I was reading up on the install at a couple of places and kept seeing verbage on hooking up to and changing the wiring configuration on the duraspark ignition. My wifes jeep does...

FI kit is ordered but they said I have a week to 10 days before howell ships. I asked for special consideration because the wife will shoot me if I don't get...
