IGNITION SYSTEM
IGNITION AMPLIFIER
The Pro-Flo system uses the Edelbrock #3518 Ignition Amplifier, which must be
mounted on a flat surface in the engine compartment away from exhaust
headers or other areas that generate heat. The wheel well panel and firewall are
ideal locations. The Ignition Amplifier is to be connected to the Main System
Harness.
DISTRIBUTOR TESTING
1.
Install the ECU and wiring harness and make all connections except the distributor.
2.
Disconnect electrical connections at the fuel pump. Unplug the 10-foot fuel pump harness from the Main System Harness.
Refer to the MAIN SYSTEM HARNESS section of this manual for details.
3.
Turn the key to the ON position without starting the engine. Check the Idle Air Control (IAC) solenoid clicks on and off for
approximately 2 seconds.
4.
The Pro-Flo Calibration Module will receive power and display an RPM: 0 reading, among other parameters.
5.
Connect the distributor to the wiring harness and spin the
distributor gear by hand. If the distributor sensor is operating
properly, the Calibration Module will display an RPM reading
greater than 0. When the distributor stops spinning, the
Calibration Module may display NO COMMUNICATION for
approximately 2 seconds. This is normal and indicates that the
ECU is waiting for the next distributor signal before the allowed
time expires.
6.
If an RPM greater than zero is indicated in step 5, install the
distributor.
INSTALLING THE DISTRIBUTOR
1.
Note: The distributor drive gear is not included and the OEM gear, or a new replacement must be installed onto the base of the
supplied Mallory distributor before installing the distributor
(Use a new gear only if installing a new camshaft at this time. Use
of a new gear on a used camshaft may result in drive gear or camshaft failure)
. Begin by removing the OEM gear from the
stock distributor by pressing or punching out the roll pin. Remove the distributor cap and rotor on the Mallory distributor before
beginning the gear installation.
2.
Grasp the Mallory distributor base at the housing and push on the shaft from above to remove all the slack.
