    WTB: 1985 M10 distributor trigger wire

    I touched the plug on the distributor trigger output, and it crumbled apart. Looking for the complete wire from distributor to late production with 2 connectors ignition control module.

    Pics of the ends of the plug:

      Is that bracket attached to the blue wire and is that for grounding?

        Yes and yes. Looks like the blue wire is attached to a shield that surrounds the two trigger wires.

          Well crap. My plug disintegrated as well and my blue wire is just hanging out not attached to or touching anything...

            Looks like the Telefunken style

                Broke-ass temporary repair until I find the replacement wire (or attempt making a replacement cover for the connector on the 3d printer to fill the gap):



                It's a piece of ABS from a failed print that was RTVed in place for the time being.

                  You did that just to hold the connector in the slot? Or was it structural somehow? Mine just sits in there snuggly without the bracket or anything

                    The plug was being held in by the bracket before, I'd like to keep it the same way.

                      Understandable. Mine has long been lost :/
