PerTronix Ignitor II Installation Instructions page 2

WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
The Ignitor II ignition can be used in conjunction with most ignition coils rated at 0.6 ohms
or greater. For optimum performance purchase and install the Flame-Thrower II high per-
formance coil.
1. Use the provided ring terminals to attach each of the black Ignitor II wires to the
negative terminal of each coil. Attach each of the red Ignitor II wires to the positive
terminal of each coil.
2. Many vehicles came equipped with ballast resistors or resistance wires. To achieve
optimum performance from the Ignitor II ignition system, we recommended removal
of these components.
A. To remove a ballast resistor, (normally white ceramic blocks 3 to 4" inches
long), disconnect all wires on both ends of the ballast resistor. Remove the
resistor from the vehicle and splice the wires together at one point.
B. To remove a resistance wire, trace the coil power wire, which was previously
connected to the positive coil terminal, back to the fuse block. Bypass this wire
with a 12-gauge copper stranded wire.
3. Check to insure that the polarity is correct, and that all connections are tight.
4. Re-connect the battery.
5. Start the engine and allow it to reach normal operating temperature. Check the
timing, and adjust to the desired setting. Timing the engine is now done entirely with
the distributor that was converted.
