IGNITOR INSTALLATION
For Part Number: 9LU-145
1. PRIOR TO INSTALLATION TURN IGNITION SWITCH OFF OR DISCONNECT THE
BATTERY.

from cap. Examine cap and rotor for wear or damage. Replace as needed.
3. Remove the points wire from the (-) terminal of the Ignition coil.
4. Remove screws that retain the original breaker plate and lift out the entire breaker plate
assembly from the distributor. Installing the Ignitor does not alter the internal configuration
of your distributor. Therefore, the points, condenser and hardware can be used as backup.

6. Place the Ignitor module into the distributor housing and align the cutout on the plate to
the wire exit hole on the distributor housing. Fasten the plate into place using the original
screws.
7. Install magnet sleeve over the distributor shaft, onto point cam. Rotate the sleeve until a
slight locating position is felt before applying pressure. Press down firmly insuring sleeve
is fully seated.
8. Insert wires through the wire exit hole in distributor housing. Pull the rubber grommet into
place. Make sure wires do not interfere with any moving parts.
9. Re-install the rotor and distributor cap. Make sure all spark plug wires are securely
attached. WARNING!!! DO NOT USE WITH SOLID CORE SPARK PLUG WIRES.
