Hey Guys, a mate asked if I could find out exactly what this Distributor is and how it is wired up. It is to suit a 350 chev and has a built in coil with 3 wires coming from it, a red, a Black and a white. I know nothing about it so I can't help him, if you need more photos just let me know.

Here's Some pictures.....

Thanks Guys

Ummm :blink:

Red = 12V ignition power
Black = Earth
White = Tach output


Any further questions? ;)

I think you need at least one wire going to the -ve of the coil, perhaps the white?
Can see a pink and green wire(these are the bosch colours for +ve and -ve of coil), is red connected to pink and green to white?
Earth wire?
In the bosch hei commodore ignition the dizzy to block connection makes the earth.
Id check for dc resistance with a multimeter between dizzy body and black wire, if close enough to zero, its an earth wire.

Red Positive coil
White Negative coil
Black - Distributor/Engine body earth

Note that it reverts to bosche colour wires once through the housing to the module.

Yep, Has in built coil. I checked for resistance between body and black wire, No resistance, so Black has to be the earth. The red and white wires go into the dizzy and to a black module which has a green and a pink wire coming out the other side of it.

The clip that the three wires (Red, Black, White) out out the side of the dizzy go to looks like it clips onto the lugs that are on the distributor cap, which go to the coil. There are three wire coming out of the coil, a Yellow which has two lugs to connect to, a Red which has two lugs to connect to and a Black which has one lug.

If that is where the clip goes which i assume it is, there is two lugs left to connect which are from the coil, a yellow and a red, Guessing red would have to be a switched 12v from the ignition switch, Yellow im guessing goes to tacho. I reckon the dizzy earths through the engine block, and the black wire from the dizzy provides the earth for the coil. Does this sound right???

Heres some pics:

Cheers
