So there is only the dark blue to the pos side of the coil and the black distributor wire to the neg side? 2 wires total? Oil pressure sending unit wire with connector broken off makes sense. I have a temporary mechanical oil pressure gauge hooked up at the moment so the wire was dangling.Gray wire is oil pressure switch or sender. Dk blue is coil.
Right off my stock 67 273.
Oil pressure switch is by / rear of dist. And where the wire is cut makes me think it was cutThe connector must have broken off
Right, it's a magnetic pickupin the distributor that replaces the points. So your coil just has 1 wire to each side? 2 total?Oil pressure switch is by / rear of dist. And where the wire is cut makes me think it was cut
I'm not familiar with the protronics conversion but most electronic ignitions just replace the points with an electronic switch of some type.
That would be my assumption as well. BUT you should refer to the Protronics wiring diagram for what gets powered from where. 67dart273 does a really good job outlining the test procedures.Right, it's a magnetic pickupin the distributor that replaces the points.

I think it's 1381. Distributor wires are attached as in diagram, ballast resistor bypassed, and using pertronix coil. Ran great before trouble started. Replaced old pertronix with identical new one because I thought it was failing but made no difference.That would be my assumption as well.

I pulled up a random pertronix install sheet. What part number are you using?
This link takes you to their FAQ and install sheets.

Will do, thanks.Run a jumper from batt positive to the plus side of the coil and see if it starts. If it does it is the wiring between batt and ignition or ignition to coil.
