Hi!
I suppose this has been posted to death. I keep on finding things I wonder regarding my car. Yesterday I was starting to work on setting up the PVC and breather hoses when I decided to take a peek inside the distributor cover.
I found a Pertronix Ignitor. I also found a loose wire. The PO keeps on mocking me with new surprises. Isn't the wire supposed to be connected somewhere? At first I though it would be under the screw that holds the Ignitor module. Then I saw a screw hole on the plate with the Motorcraft text and thought it might go there. But after watching a video from CJ Pony Parts I saw the ground wire was going down the hole in the distributor. This makes me curious
Is it me or is something wrong? Also, is it time to replace the rotor? Please see the two pictures.
