    Hey guys. I have a couple of questions. Got my ford 8n front mount started and running-it was the electronic ignition from pertronix that was the problem. Just wanting to clarify, is there supposed to be a resistor for 12v electronic ignition? I have browsed on here some for that answer, but...

    How to hand turn the starting motor

    My ford 8n front mount just clicks when I push the button. It worked before but was having trouble starting it. After a while it just started clicking when I push the button. I heard if it clicks then it probably isn't a solenoid issue, but it got stuck somehow when I tried to start it while it...

    New distributor wiring?

    Ok this makes the most sense. I have a good 12v can coil I never used. How does the power get from the coil to the distributor? Awesome, thank you! On your picture, those wires are for the electronic ignition, right? On one that isn't, those wires would be there, right?

    New distributor wiring?

    Ok thank you, this helps. What is the purpose of the insulator in a regular not electronic distributor with points? I can't find it, is that something I could get at a auto parts store? It doesnt seem like it was attachedAlso can I wire directly to the coil as is? Thanks for the help everybody.

    New distributor wiring?

    Can you screenshot the pertronix plate/insulator? Wouldn't that be electronic and not points?

    New distributor wiring?

    So I could get one like this one and wire it from the same place it's wired to now? Does it matter that it has the 12v conversion?

    New distributor wiring?

    Is there a way to go back to points? I know I'm not sounding very smart here.

    New distributor wiring?

    No, it came with a round coil mounted on the side, and it has a hole where there is a wood piece that had a spark plug in it I think, I don't know what size because as I took it off it fell into the little housing for the belt and my hand won't fit. I'll take some more pictures, I marked the I...

    New distributor wiring?

    New distributor, the wires on the old one went to the coil, I am assuming this one doesn't need the condenser, so I can take that one off? Here is the old one, and the new one
