several questions

1. What year/or month did electronic ign. begin on the Duster SLANT cars?

2. Duster in question is 71 slant car. It has a 2 field alternator and points dist. and newer style VR. I know I can ground one of the field wires. Which one?? BUT must I then go to old style VR or can I use the newer style ( triangle place to plug n wires)...??

3. AND, can I run the 2 wire alternator with the newer VR and the POINTS dist.!??????

I bought this cobbled together wonder like this. thanks...

4. I got it home changed points/condenser, ballast,new plugs... It had not been on the roads in what I am told by PO who got it from another PO,,,,for 10-15 years but someone had no doubt freshened the carb as it fired and ran great around the yard as I worked on brakes. then it dies. starts back up but runs like it is either flooding out or not getting right current. then won't start. I find coil is out putting out good current with the old coil wire to valve cover test. the big coil wire is good.
SO I jump the batt. to coil + , it then fires up and runs great. I take OFF the jumper . And starts and runs great after. ballast tests .7 ohms. new OEM coil, points, condenser.
I did the MADD deal running new big wires thru the firewall but kept the amp gauge after cleaning it.

I know ...install electronic system, but I really want to just keep the points system right now.
5. One question is why did it not start till I jumped the battery to coil +, I take off jumper, and it starts fine now and runs fine now???????

thanks
