Wrong distributor in '95, Pertronix connections
3 Attachment(s)
Bought a very nice 1995 Discovery. Totally flat accel, found vacuum advance disconnected + broken. In checking distrib numbers (35DM8), it was distributor that fits '83 carbureted one. Have new correct dizzy for this truck, but connectors are different. I can trace the blue and red back to the ignition module-- would this be the correct path? Is the red + and the blue negative and then just connect them to the appropriate poles on the new dizzy? Leave everything else as-is? Many thanks!!

Does the pertronix have a new ignition control module on its side. (See new posted pic) Do I need to eliminate the old ignition module on the firewall?

Here's the new Pertronix-- w/ a new ignition module attached. The instructions are simply "connect factory wiring harness to the ignition module".

if you are using the Pertronix dizzy....I'd use the Pertronix module mounted on the dizzy and eliminate the oem one . Originally the Rover modules were distributor mounted , but later moved forward away from the heat...

Thanks for all the assistance. Do not know how who when or where the improper dizzy was installed so want to get it right. OK to use current Bosch coil?

Have already done plugs wires, etc. This truck is very satisfying to work on-- near showroom condition w/ 105k, brand new Michelins. Ran smooth as a watch, but dead flat accel. I think it will come along beautifully w/ a bit of work.

Dizzy in and working-- many thanks!
