    Ford 2N points issue

    Yes that was supposed to be "wiring". I should proof read better. I'm sure the coil I put on it is 12v. However, as I previously stated, I installed a new ballast resistor. Then after ruining another new set of points, I decided "hmmm... this might be a could time to stop assuming and start...

    Mine definitely does not have the wiring block. This is great info. I will check my wiring against the diagram. I can't imagine it's Wimmer just because it's been running great since I've had it for more than 4 years until recently. I wonder if I converted it to electronic ignition, if that...
