Could I get someone to help me get my ignition coil hooked back up? I’ve finally got all my smog taken care of but I can’t figure out how to connect this new coil.
thanks!
thanks!

What distributor do you have? I don’t see that you have an ignitor or ignition module, so points distributor?
If it’s points:
keyed +12v to coil +
coil - to points and condensor.

The pic is of the distributor I have. I don’t think I have a module so I’m assuming it’s a points distributor. I don’t know much about that. Learning as I go.
Yes. If you want it use the distributor you have, the easiest is to track down a Toyota igniter. It typically mounts to the top of your coil bracket.

One other question. I had this igniter in my shop. The numbers seem to be the right ones for an 87 FJ60, but the connectors are the same from the 60 and the igniter, both seem to be male connectors. I guess this is the wrong igniter??
Is it not:

Maybe one of the experts knows for certain, but I think it’s for diagnostic purposes.
It’s not connected to anything on my 1987.
