Condenser wire?

Post by Dr. Frankenstein » Thu Jun 04, 2015 8:13 am

Hi all - I just have a question about the two wires coming off the condenser of my '64 Dream 305...where does the wire that does NOT go to the points connect to?

Mine goes to a green wire. Further than that I honestly dont remember. Google CA77 wiring diagram and it will be on there. Color coded and all.

Would that be a green wire in a black sleeve that appears to go into the wire harness...? That's the only place I can see that it would go...

And they are joined by a connector...?

Yes, the green wire goes back to the coil and connects via a bullet connector to the green condenser wire. Make sure the connection is insulated so it doesn't ground out or you may experience disappointing ignition performance...
