Ok, the rules are; 1. You must explain the process in the most simple terms (being that Electrics are my Achilles heel). 2. Pictures would really be helpful. 3. always consider rule 1 for any answer. Now, let’s move on to the current dilemma ( see what I did there ? Haha, current..). My ‘71...

Good Morning and thanks in advance ! I am horrible at electronics and have decided to move away from points. The instruction sheet that came with the electronic ignition look fairly straight forward, but being an electronic imbecile...I have a few questions. Please bear with me. 1. With the...
