Posted February 10, 201213 yr comment_380370 Just got Pertronix Ignitor 1761 and try to install onto my '72 240z factory dizzy. I try to follow other thread "Pertronix Ignitor 1761 install and coil evaluation", but when I open up my dizzy, it looks different from 280zx dizzy. I could not figure out which wire I should remove. Could someone give me an advice?

February 10, 201213 yr comment_380382 That looks like a auto trans dizzy (dual point), you need one from a manual trans car.
