I found my shop manual CD so I have the wire legend for color coding and connections from ballast resistor and I have another Crane module so I will rewire as listed install another XR700 and see what happens. It was running before we ripped it down the shop had her for a year and finally closed down so we had to tow her back and try to figure out what goes where. I still have Crane instruction paperwork so I will try again because the exciter ring inside is being picked up by the photoeye because the LED flashes on the module. Thanks guys
I have black to ground,red to coil+ yellow to coil- a solid blue wire and a yellow w black stripe wire I do have the shop manual on a CD I do have a spark from my coil not very crisp but nothing at the plugs...........................rotor is a approaching 7 oclock for #1 ATDC on the dampner. Plug wire are Taylor cap and rotor are Jap coil is PS 20 what am I missing?
Trying to reassemble my 260Z installed a Crane XR 700 ignition and PS 20 coil using OEM ballast resistor the car will crank but not start. Earlier with the stock coil I had a weak spark but nothing to the plugs now nothing. Connected red wire to + yellow to - and black is secured to the coil bracket. The LED flashes when I crank so that part is correct but I still have two wires off the ballast resistor. What I need to know is which wire goes where because I tried several now this car ran before and we were about to do a V8 transplant so we took everything out of the engine bay. That plan fell through and now after several months I am trying to remember where everything plugs in. For some reason my spark was not getting to the plugs even when it was weak. I am trying to get a photo of a stock 260Z engine bay showing the coil and resistor wiring I must be overlooking something simple.
