4. Oppsett og installasjon

Riktig installasjon er avgjørende for optimal ytelse. Følg disse trinnene nøye:

1. Preparat:
   • Koble fra den negative batterikabelen.
   • Mark the position of the rotor on the old distributor relative to the distributor body, and the position of the distributor body relative to the engine block. This will help with re-timing.
   • Label all spark plug wires before removal.
2. Old Distributor Removal:
   • Remove the distributor cap and spark plug wires.
   • Disconnect any electrical connections to the old distributor.
   • Loosen the distributor hold-down clamp and carefully lift the old distributor out of the engine block. Note the rotation of the rotor as it comes out.
3. New Distributor Installation:
   • Ensure the engine is at Top Dead Center (TDC) on the compression stroke for cylinder #1.
   • Align the new PerTronix distributor's gear with the camshaft gear. The rotor should point to the #1 spark plug terminal on the cap when fully seated. You may need to slightly rotate the rotor or the oil pump drive shaft to engage the gears.
   • Once seated, ensure the distributor body is oriented correctly as marked during removal.
   • Secure the distributor with the hold-down clamp, but do not fully tighten yet to allow for timing adjustments.
4. Kablingstilkoblinger:
   • The PerTronix Ignitor module has two wires: a red wire and a black wire.
   • Koble til rød ledning to a switched 12-volt power source that is active when the ignition is in the "ON" and "START" positions. This must be a full 12V source, not a resisted wire.
   • Koble til svart ledning to the negative (-) terminal of the ignition coil.
   • Sørg for at alle tilkoblinger er rene og sikre.
5. Final Assembly and Timing:
   • Install the new distributor cap and reattach the spark plug wires in the correct firing order.
   • Koble til den negative batterikabelen igjen.
   • Start the engine and use a timing light to set the ignition timing according to your vehicle's specifications.
   • Once timing is set, fully tighten the distributor hold-down clamp.

• Regelmessig inspeksjon: Periodically inspect the distributor cap and rotor for cracks, carbon tracking, or excessive wear. Replace if necessary.
• Kabling: Check all electrical connections for tightness and corrosion. Ensure wiring is routed away from hot or moving engine components.
• Rengjøring: Keep the exterior of the distributor clean and free from oil, grease, and dirt. Use a clean, dry cloth.
