In trying to wire in the new distributor I have run into a little snag. The 1977 federal breakerless Spitfire distributor that I have has three wires a red/blue, a white/blue, and a white/gray (slate). The problem is that NONE of the wiring diagrams that I have list such a combination. They have the other wires but not the red/blue. I am assuming, and my gut feeling is that I should wire it as shown but substitute the red/blue for the white wire that is on all the diagrams that I have and is the only different wire - that would connect it to the one side of the drive resistor and the + 12volts. The white/blue would be connected to the other side of the drive resistor, and the white/gray would be connected to the negative side of the coil as shown on the diagrams. Does this sound correct, or could someone with a 77 > Spitfire with this type of distributor (the electronics are all mounted on an aluminum box screwed onto the side of the dizzy) take a look and see if that is how theirs is wired (the red/blue on the dizzy side of the connector is connected to a white wire on the wiring harness side)? Does that make any sense?? Thanks for any help - I would rather not let all the smoke out at first start up :-)
