Afternoon all!
I'm sure I asked about this before but I had no luck at the time - after one of these connectors that go to the coil with the two wires coming off. I rather butchered my wiring when adding in my electronic ignition and ditched the points on the Laser and as such my rev counter hasn't worked for the last 3+years
Looking to try and do a "proper job" with the correct wiring if anyone has one of these please - Beer tokens waiting
Cheers Now

Re: Coil Connector
There's usually one green wire involved. How come there's two?

Re: Coil Connector
My understanding was there was one green wire that went to the dizzy, the other is for the rev counter so this is the connecter on the coil for the 6pod dash

Re: Coil Connector
IIRC one is actually green (tacho) the othere is green with a black stripe to the coil if that helps?.

Re: Coil Connector
Thank you! Will have a look at the Laser when it's back from the engine rebuild and see if I can fix it
