The red and black from the dizzy go onto the pos and neg of the coil pack. The pos from the ignition switch comes down to the pos on the coil, and a second wire comes from the neg on the coil to the neg on the battery.
If that makes sense ?

I don't think you should have a neg from coil to battery the neg has to be broken to create a spark.

I just google imaged ignition system and there are no images of the neg on the coil going to the battery, as I said before it is the neg being broken that creates the spark.

Like I say I tried with and without....
I have had a look inside the dizzy and it does not seem to have the plastic ring with the magnets on that I have seen.... Will need to ask about this methinks That would explain a lot !

Hi Richard and Rob,
Electronic ignitions are not hooked up as conventional ignition circuits, here is a typical Pertronix set up. http://www.geocities.ws/a65ragtop/VM...ertronix_4.jpg

Yes, you must have the plastic collar that fits neatly on the breaker cam. The one in the Pertronix kit for my Dodge was a little loose so I used some aluminium tape to build up the cam.
As I recall there was no gap specified between the collar and the pickup so it can't be critical. David
