    ignition and resistor wiring on an 8n

    your assumptions are correct i.e. front mounted distributor, 6V, napa resistor replacement. therefore, the resistor gets wired to the coil and ignition. the ignition goes to the resistor and to ground. the lights go to the lights and to ground on the resistor. what does positive ground mean...

    8N won't start

    have you tried bypassing the ignition by going from the top of the coil with a wire to the hot side of the battery? If this works, your problem is most likely the resistor. good luck.

    ignition and resistor wiring on an 8n

    Help I am replacing the resistor but forgot the wiring sequence i.e. the resistor has two posts and the ignition has two posts. how do i wire the ignition to the resistor? Where can I find the electrical guide for an 8N? Thanks Otto
