G'day brother it's been a while how's everything going out your way mate? Bro man dude mate buddy legend,,,, that was off tap you were getting it man🤘🤘

Negative side of coil goes to the distributor not to ground.

Sorry, but your vid is crap. From the beginning 😂

2007 Volz wagon jetto. 2.5 voltage regulator.

Pp

Thank you so much! Perfectly said!

Thanks a lot.

Lol 😆 🤣 😂

Could this engine take ITB's? Has anyone even done it?

Nice Blue, my Dad had a 1973 Purple Gremlin X with the gold stripe. V8 3 speed on the floor. Brand new in 1973 around 1975 my sister was ready for her drivers license so my dad taught us both to drive the same time I was 13. I still love the Gremlin X but 1972 and 1973 were the best years.

Love it it’s still there

Absolutely love this video! Thank you so much for making this simple and understandable! I can’t tell you how much this is helped me, thank you thank you!

glad feet boy is still on youtube

you kinda forgot about the points wire that goes to the coil

Pretty cool just needed a refresher . I'm building a sandrail and have finally arrived at this point. Thanks well done.

Very helpful

Can you draw off the coil for an electric fuel pump?

For anybody using a remote starter solenoid as seen in the video, there are a few types available and not all get wired the same way so be sure you know what you have before connecting any power wires. The large post are the same on all types, when the solenoid is energized there will be continuity between the large post. One side goes to the battery positive and the other side goes to the starter. Polarity does not matter through the large post. The difference between the types of solenoids are in the little post. Some solenoids will only have 3 post. Two large and a small. This type uses the body of the solenoid as the ground path. You only need to connect a single wire from the ignition switch START position to the small post. When the key is in the start position it will energize the coil and close the internal contacts between the two large post. The second type has 4 post, two large and two small post. One of the small post will be labeled with the letter “I”. This style was used for vehicles with ballast resistors in the ignition circuit. Engines with points distributors anD early electronic ignition used this type. The ignition switch START position is wired to the small S terminal and the solenoid body provides the ground path. The “I” terminal will have battery voltage on it during cranking only. A wire is routed from the I terminal to coil positive. This bypassed the ballast resistor in the ignition circuit to provide the coil with full 12 volts during cranking. When the key is released after the engine has started, the “I” terminal will no longer have power. The last type also has 4 post. Two large and two small and as described in the video, a wire from the START side of the ignition switch will be routed to one of the small post, the other small post will be routed to ground. I hope this clarifies the start circuit. I think this next topic was addressed in the comments already but the negative side of the coil goes to the distributor, through the points to ground. When the points open the ignition circuit opens. This causes the field within the coil to collapse and the energy is released to ground through the spark plug. When the points close, the circuit is closed, the coil primary is again energized

This brings back memories. My 72 was blue with a straight 6. I also rebuilt my carb and tuned myself. I am grateful that I lived in an era where a guy could fix his own car. Those days are gone.😪

Awesome views of Old Faithful 😃

i had one back in 1873...it was a Levi Edition but i didnt have the stripes

I'm going to be wiring an old hotrod, I thought I had it correct in my head and this verified it. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. Very helpful!

weve been driving through butte every friday for the powder puff races in anaconda in our gremlin we will be up there again racing the end of july you should come check it out!

That negative from the coil goes to the points and condenser?...in the distributor?...and the hot stays hot for the engine to run?..and the switch stays on until you want the engine to stop 🛑?

You use two nuts dude.

discord.gg/CJmCq5Mk. Buddy what happen❓

Thanks for the memories I had a 1972 same color with the spoiler but I had a six cylinder in it with a little engine work and did we have fun rat racing. Everyone loved that gremlin and yes hard to believe it was a chick magnet in high school. I guarantee I would still owe on the vehicle today if my kid brother had in total it out. Once again thanks.

Hey that's an awesome trail Similar to a trail in the Canadian Rockies. Seems like you all have Saskawatches like here! Canadian ones are camera shy also. Thanks for sharing your video and top of the trail!

With coil wire to ground, how does distributer fire the coil? Cant..

Very good. Just want to clarify that the coil is not a capacitor. It is a transformer. It boosts 12V to 30kV or more. It is always doing that while the ignition is on. The distributor "distributes" that 30kV to each spark plug when that cylinder is at TDC of the firing stroke.

This is great video just need the color of the wires that is for DUMB people like us. 😆 ours was firing running great and my husband messed with the key switch wires and now don't start

Some drawing for dimensions and bending of pipes on a vehicle structure ?!

A+

Happy New Years Burd! Glad you got around to edit old faithful. As you know I am up in God's Country. .north of you. ..Last time I seen old faithful was probably 2000. Thanks for the awesome video..been far too long since I've been down south. Thanks again, may the new year bring you all health happiness and a year filled with prosperity.

Wow they are so big! :) Nice capture :)

Looks lovely :)

I've been trying to figure out how to wire a sand rail, and I'm colorblind. I really appreciate this video. Still a little confused, but this is a huge help man, thanks.

What a beautiful small car _ love the design : wishing had one : thanks for sharing the vid ..................

my brother had a 72 Gremlin X 304 3 speed. 14 second 1/4 mi . Fun to drive . would beat trans-ams and comaro s and mud tangs and the 68 charger he traded for it. Would not keep up with my 66 american 232 with turbocharger .

That Car Worth Some Big Money. Looks Like In Nice Shape Too And Not Many Around Like This.

How Far Away Were You From The Bears?

Nice Gremlin. The inline six's did have a mellow tone at lower RPM when equipped with dual exhaust unlike the modern day V6 stuff.

Amazing collection of unique shaped and vibrant colored flowers. You Sir are definitely an artist with the collection and surrounding of the flower arrangement you've chosen to photograph together. I can only imagine the fragrance that would be with the flowers . Very well done Burd! Thank you for sharing.

The distributor wire, to the NEG coil.

bruh. 🌲👀🌲✌💘

I’ve wired a few of these, go get about 8’ of 7in1 trailer wire(black round has 7 various sized wires) run that from back of ignition to the alt/gen, unless the battery is on the nose then it needs to go from there to alt for the charge wire. From there you can open the insulation and tap and pull wires where you need. as it passes next to starter you can tap the starter wire etc etc makes for a clean finish without all the plastic loom

Excellent for a beginner. Great for dune buggy hook up.

Cool its not perfect but ive done my research so ill be good thanks

Perfect thank you

Dr. Clueless here, THANKS, about to buy a LONG sitting dune buggy rail, and just want to get it running to pull my pull behind grass cutter on my farm, THIS may get me up and running.
