Installing a Pertronic 1 in my 64 PU with a 292. Truck still has the resistance wire under the dash feeding reduced voltage to the coil during "ignition on" and full voltage thru the starting solenoid during the "start" mode. Pertronic instructions state they want full voltage to the red wire. My plan was to "Y" off the ignition on wire before the pink resister wire and run this to the red wire on the Pertronic. However, this will not power the Pertronic unit when the ignition switch is in the "start" position. Cannot figure out how to power the Pertronic with 12 volt in the start mode and still not power the ignition coil with 12 volt in the run mode. Anybody have a solution??
Could switch to a "real" 12 volt coil and bypass the resistor wire. Is this the best way? Thanks for the help.
