Great!! Now you need to do Tips 1 through 5 and maybe even the scary #27.

That #27 is pretty scary.
Im planning on buying dielectric grease and contact cleaner and going over the connectors and fuse box, im having a problem with loose fuses/ high resistance in the fuse box cousing some issues, the insulation under the carpet was souked I thing thats what led to the corrosion on the fuse terminals, thats all torn out now, going to install a new floor liner also.

27 is easy. One set of wires at a time.

but what you're planning is still a great step in the right direction.

Becouse all it has under the rotor is that plastic pickup coil you can just pull off, then under it is the trigger wheel. When I looked up the renix dizzy it was setup different. Whatever it is it plugs derectly into the renix harness.

I'm not convinced.

Well that explains it. Someone swapped connectors.

Might as well disconnect the harness or get a rebuilt distributor and give that one as a core.
