the ACCEL 52000 distributor so that the rotor points to the same
plug wire as the previous distributor. This should make the
timing close enough to start the engine. Also make sure you
set and/or verify the initial timing advance at an engine speed
of 800 RPM.
WIRING
When you are using your distributor without an ignition amplifier
or CD type ignition unit, the 3-wire harness connects as follows:
Brown Wire Negative (-) Terminal on the Coil
Black Wire Engine Ground
Red Wire Switched 12 Volt Source
Note- Some older vehicles are equipped with a ballast
resistor or a resistance wire. These cannot be used with
this distributor. Bypass or eliminate the ballast resistor if
your vehicle is equipped with one. To check for a resistance
wire, use a voltmeter to verify that when the engine is
running that the COIL POSITIVE TERMINAL reads within 1 volt
of the battery voltage. If the voltage difference is more than
1 volt, the wire needs to be replaced. When bypassing a
ballast resistor or eliminating a resistance wire, use at least
a 14 gauge automotive grade copper wire from the COIL
POSITIVE ( + ) to the starter solenoid or a switch terminal in
the fuse box.
Make sure that your 12-Volt source supplies voltage with the
ignition key in both with the ON (run) and START positions, but
not in the ACCESSORY position.
Connecting to ACCEL 300+ Ignition
Or other CDI box, ignition amplifier, or multiple strike unit.
Your new distributor is designed as a stand-alone unit. It does not
require an external ignition/enhancer box to operate. To use the
ACCEL 300+ (or other) ignition system with this distributor, the
electronic module must be bypassed.
Step 1
Remove the cap and rotor.
Step 2
The breakerless electronic module is the green, half-circle
shaped piece with four wires attached to it. Remove the four wire
leads (one red, one green, one orange, one purple) from the
module. They are attached with spade connectors.
The module may be removed from the distributor, if desired.
Step 3
Connect the two leads from the magnetic pickup directly to the
ACCEL 300+. Connect the purple lead from the magnetic pickup
to the ACCEL 300+ purple lead (magnetic pickup positive +).
Connect the orange wire from the magnetic pickup to the ACCEL
300+ orange lead (magnetic pickup negative –).
Step 4
Other 300+ connections:
Red 12 volts key (ignition)
Black Engine Ground
Yellow 300+ Coil Positive (+)
Brown 300+ Coil Negative (–)
Step 5
Follow instructions in the ACCEL 300+ booklet regarding spark
plug gap and ignition timing under "Technical Tips and Hints"
section.
