Ignition wiring diagram Mazda B2000 1986

I have recently changed from points to electronic distributer. I have also upgraded the ignition coil. I am looking at rewiring the coil back to power source as I am not getting sufficient power at the coil. I have removed the ballast resistor but still power is very limited.

Any help appreciated

    How did you replace the the distributor with an electronic? Did the electronic distributor have a control box with it or are you trying to use the existing wiring? Electronic distributors use a fast rise in current with a break which creates the spark. Some vehicles have a limiting resistor built into the factory vehicle wiring that reduces the voltage to the coil, on others the coil the resister is built into the coil that is different from a standard dist. coil. Some units also have an extra condensor attached to the coil, besides the distributor. Good Luck, RAC

Where do wires go from ignition coil 2002 Mazda 626 es v6

For many years the ignition amplifier and trigger unit has been integrated into the engine management ECU, verify with the wiring diagram but I expect that is where the ignition coil wires originate from.

How to fit a morris minor distributer

Hi The distributer should have an offset drive so it can only go back in the same way it came out,
As to no spark:
Check the contact points
Condenser
Tiny earth wire from breaker plate to distributer body.
Coil
Ignition supply and ballast resister.

Morris cars originally had a positive earth system on the battery if you change to negative earth you must check the coil connection the Neg - terminal on the coil goes to the distributer and the Pos+
is ignition supply

Spark plug wire diagram for 2005 mazda 6

2.3L 4 cylinder? After removing the plastic engine cover, look at the top of the ignition coil.

changesparkplugs003.jpg
It should be numbered 1 through 4.

This is plug number 1 on the engine:

Just wire them 1, 2, 3 and 4 to the corresponding numbers on the ignition coil.

No fire out of coil ! ,changed coil, new battery , battery line seems to give off weak spark.still no spark out of coil 73 vette with points distributer

Very likely the points are bad.

if you have replaced the points and capacitor and the coil, then the only other components are the wires and the resistor.

It is simple to troubleshoot if you have a volt meter.

With the ignition on, there should be 12 volts across the primary side of the coil (the small connections).

Do not attempt to measure the secondary side of the coil (the big connection on the top) it will blow out your meter.

If there is no voltage on the primary side of the coil, it is a bad resistor or a broken wire.

This page has a diagram of an automobile ignition circuit that is similar to the one in your car.

Need electronic ignition wiring diagram for a 1966 thunderbird

The only place that I know that has a wiring diagram is the factory shop manual which is available thru any thunderbird restoration parts suppliers or ebay. If the electronic ignition, they called it transistorized ignition in 66, is original, you might consider changing to a point type ignition or a later electronic ignition or aftermarket like Petronics. The parts for the original transistorized ignition are very hard to find and even more pricier.

I put a in line 6cyl. 250cu.in. in an old studebaker.I was told it came out of a 76 C-10 pickup.I used the wiring harness which came with the motor.How does the external coil get power.There are 4 prongs...

It would seem that you got an engine with an ignition control module (ICM) type (electronic) ignition. You will need to find a wiring diagram and see where the ICM unit fits into the system and what else it may need to work with your Studebaker.
You may want to consider changing to a breaker point distributor to simplify the installation. You will need to get a different coil and add a ballast resistor if the Studebaker didn't have one (but I suspect it has).
