ignition wire completely gone.so i have replaced the wire, but cannot find where it connects on the motor. please help thanks i think it is around 1978 model
yes i have had a time replacing wires, this ign wire is the last hurdle, I have spent hours looking at wire diagrams.cant make heads or tails of these 1970s diagrams.I think that surely there is a common connection for all these old motors. Thanks
When you say ignition wire, which one(s) do you mean. On an ADI ignition like you probably have, there are wires from the stator to the switchbox to charge it. There are wires from the trigger to the switchbox to fire it and there are wires from the switchbox to the coils, to fire the coils.
There is also a single ignition killer wire from the ignition key to the switchbox. This is grounded to kill spark. They are pretty simple, after you work with them a bit.
