360 not starting "Now"

NORMALLY a condenser on the coil would be hooked to the POSITIVE side of the coil, and (factory) was meant for radio noise suppression.

HOWEVER if that one happens to be on the neg. side, and if removing it kills the spark, then the ECU may be bad. (They have a condenser inside the box, which performs the same job as the old ones did inside the distributor with points)

"Jumper" wiring the ECU? Of course. First, you need to be sure that the harness for the ECU/ distributor is OK, and check the reluctor gap in the distributor. Is the ECU 5 pin? (4 wire ballast?) or 4 pin? (2 wire ballast?) or is it a 4 pin box someone upgraded, and left the old 4 terminal ballast resistor?

The simple answer is, to jumper the ignition to 12V put the key in "run" pull off the resistor connectors, and probe the harness connectors until you find battery voltage. There should only be one of the two or four wires that is "hot."

THIS hot wire is the terminal that you want to "jumper" a good hot 12V to from the battery.

Use Google or post back. LOTS of wiring diagrams for the Mopar ECU about
