Oldtech Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Jeep? There is a wire to the other end under the dash. You may have to modify a little and use a regular coil. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloo Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Yeah, the other terminal is on the bottom. You are pretty much stuck with used parts for coils like that, or NORS ones from Ebay. They seem to be expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keithb7 Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 (edited) Looks like a flathead, positive ground Mopar to me. If you have a fun driver car, order a new 6V coil on Rock Auto for $20 or so. Ditch that old coil. Run the power wire from your key switch to the negative marked terminal on the new coil. The wire currently going to your distributor, hook it to the positive marked terminal on the new 6V coil. Slide the new coil in the hole in the firewall. Bolt it down. Voila! Easy peasy and done. If you want to maintain the stock coil system get ready to spend $300 for a coil. My ‘38 6V +ground Mopar with new Rock Auto 6V coil is illustrated. Nobody at the car show noticed it. Yet, I don’t enter Concours D’elegance. Edited August 7, 2022 by keithb7 (see edit history) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
