MALLORY IGNITION

FIGURE 1

WIRING DIAGRAM USING OEM PRIMARY (LOOM) RESISTANCE WIRE

NOTE: The purpose of resistance wire between the ignition

switch (12V) and the ignition coil positive terminal is to restrict

current flow through the ignition coil. Failure to use resistance

wire will eventually destroy the Ignition Module.

EXCEPTION: If your vehicle is equipped with a HYFIRE

Electronic

Ignition Control or similar aftermarket ignition control, use the

wiring procedures stated in the instructions included with the

ignition control.

NOTE: The Red wire from the distributor would prefer to see 12v

using a loom resistor makes that a little more difficult.

To prevent false triggering and possible

premature ignition failure, you must

use suppression type (carbon core,

spiral core, or radio suppression core)

spark plug wire.

Do not use solid core (copper core or

stainless steel core) spark plug wire

with any electronic ignition system.

WIRING DIAGRAM USING IGNITION BALLAST RESISTOR

NOTE: The purpose of an ignition ballast resistor between the

ignition switch (12V) and the ignition coil positive terminal is

to restrict current flow through the ignition coil. Failure to use

an ignition ballast resistor will eventually destroy the Ignition

Module.

EXCEPTION: If your vehicle is equipped with a HYFIRE

Electronic Ignition Control or similar aftermarket ignition control,

use the wiring procedures stated in the instructions included

with the ignition control.

To prevent false triggering and pos-

sible premature ignition failure, you

must use suppression type (carbon

core, spiral core, or radio suppression

core) spark plug wire.
