By the sounds of it, you have one with an internal ignitor. Therefore, you only need rotor, cap and leads (the leads could be the same as the old 4k ones anyway). All you need to do is line the engine up with TDC on cylinder 1, undo the bolt and pull out the old dizzy, set the rotor on the new dizzy to point to roughly the same place, and bolt it in. The two wires which come from the dizzy go to the positive and negative sides of the coil. Then do the timing as you would on any other engine. The only problems which might arise is that the new dizzy could have two vacuum ports instead of the old one, and that the oil-pump key may make the dizzy slot in out of alignment. This is simply a case of trial and error, using a long flat-blade screwdriver to rotate the oil-pump with the dizzy removed, and then re-inserting the dizzy. Quote
Taz_Rx Posted October 22, 2007 Report Posted October 22, 2007 Hey Hiro, I noticed you did the 4keu dizzy upgrade in your projects thread. I just bought one too (well its a 4k elec dizzy, so assuming the same) and just wanna know a couple of things: Do you know which wire is neg and pos? Like what colours are they? And do you possible have a part number for the rotor cap and button? Quote

I just took the dizzy into Bursons and they fished around in their stock and looked up the catalogue till they found something that fit. From memory they came from something like a 5K Liteace Quote
