Stag powered Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 I am currently fitting a twin plenum V8 that comes with the 35DLM8 distributor. This is the one with the square box on the outside of the dizzy, it has two terminals on it, and from the wiring diagram one goes to the 12v live and coil +ve, the other to the coil -ve Anybody got an idea of which way round? Thanks, Neil Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tim_trinda Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 If its the same as mine and the wires are red/black and white/black, then red/black goes to 12V and white/black goes to coil -ve. Cheers Tim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stag powered Posted April 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 Hi Tim The problem I have is that there is no engine bay wiring loom , if I had the plug I could work with the colours from there. It was suggested on another forum that the connector in line with the amplifier is the +ve, and the one at 90 degrees to it is the negative, could you confirm this, thanks, Neil Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dai-click Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Neil - just been to look at my V8 Grinnall which uses the same dizzy and I can confirm the connections are as you detailed above Dave Quote Link to post Share on other sites
