For a 1995 Nissan 240SX with the KA24DE engine, the distributor wiring typically comes from the engine harness and connects to the distributor itself. Check the main engine harness that runs along the front of the engine; the wiring for the distributor is usually a set of two or three wires. If you’re having trouble locating them, refer to a wiring diagram for the KA24DE engine, which can help you identify the specific colors and positions of the wires. Additionally, inspect for any damage or disconnections in the harness that could be affecting the signal to the distributor.

Yes, when switching from a points distributor to an electronic distributor in a 1979 Ford F-250, you typically need to modify the wiring. This includes removing the points ignition components and potentially adding a power source for the electronic ignition module. Ensure that the wiring harness is compatible with the new distributor, and double-check for any necessary changes to the ignition coil, as electronic distributors often require a different coil than points systems.

To advance the timing on a 396 Chevy, you should turn the distributor counterclockwise.
