I have read previous posts, but I still have some questions.
1979 3.8 Turbo motor
First, with the Spark Control box hooked up, the motor starts and runs fine.
When I try jumping the plug from the distributor (connects to the spark control box), it doesn't run at all. I'm jumping (I think) #2 and #4 wires, per a previous thread.
My real question is, how do I know exactly which pin is which? It is not clearly marked. Is one a "male" and the other a "female"?
I must be hooking up the wrong wires since it does run with the spark control.
Thank you!
PS The reason I'm asking is that this motor now sits in my Jeep, and I have yet to figure out how to wire up the spark box. In the mean time, I would like to get it running.
