I need help with something that is simple that I forgot to write down when working on my car. (My fault….).
I need info on the wiring that goes from the wiring harness/coil/dizzy (that has the Pertornx). I have four wire coming out of the wiring harness by the dizzy (red,green,and two blacks). The red and green go to the oil press sending unit, so that leaves two blacks. Out of the dizzy is a red and black wire. I believe the red wire goes to the + side of the coil and the black (dizzy) to the – side of the coil. Were to the two from the wiring harness go? |

Seems you are missing one. Black purple 14 gauge is for the 12 to the coil (positive) the smaller wire 16 ga. from the harness is black it is for the tach. Since these cars are old you may just want to put a meter on the wires to verify your predecessor ain't trying to screw you. Yes the green and red is from the oil pressure idiot light. Seems your Petronics will be wired right (as per your installation instructions.
