Title: Help from any FC Owners please
Post by: clive on December 26, 2018, 08:10:47 PM
I have had an e-mail in asking for help.

From memory I know some plugs don't do any thing but what is missing or needs to be plugged in to these in the picture below??

With no knowlegde of fc ..but that coilpack is the trailing as wasted spark...so the ignitor underneath that feeds it with have red live black neutral so the orange must be the trigger. May have an ignition amp on at some point..so missing loom? (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20181227/fe4ad48454f62c3befbe6f13043d9b53.jpg)

The Coil in picture is the L Leading coil Pack (there is a "L1 / L2" on each coil, The Trailing has a "T1/T2" on, and is near the Fire wall).    The small black plug is for connecting  a Aux  rev counter & the white plug I am not sure but believe it to be for Ign checking timing?
I will try & take some pictures today.

Please find attached pictures of Coil wiring, the Trailing has Blue HT Lead Caps.   As a rule of thumb, green connectors are for component/circuit testing, they  are from a S5 TII ...........hope these help:-

Yeah! I thought that mine was clean and quite shiny for original engine bay, but I have to say that it was lightyears behind that one

Many thanks guys for the comments.
It took a while to get back that "newish look".   Fortunately I managed to get it done as a running resto without removing the keg, just individual components,  cleaning/painting/polishing as necessary (I know, I should get out more) :D
