Have a motor in ch***is cut wiring but has box off of firewall... I know positive ground..anyone have a diagram of simple wiring to just get it running in frame ? Thank you
Need to see all you have to work with. Simple wire to the coil from a battery, jump the starter and light it up. Nothing easier to start than a Model A. You didn't mention fuel so neither did I.
Yes know the basics with like a 50s car ( remote fuel ) just the odd distributor, starter and positive ground..don't wanna fry anything
Looks like the armored cable is in place. That has the juice to the points and if there's a key switch thats your volts to the distributor. From what I see a lot of it is where it needs to be. Model As are so simple it almost makes things more confusing as in, "where is..." or "what is..." when "it isn't..." is the reality. If you have good cables and wires I'd jump it with a battery, 6V or 12V won't matter just don't turn on anything else if 12. Starters don't sweat voltage as much as they sweat low amps. As to jumping, it seems many get worried as to jumping a positive ground car. No worries, put the red one on the frame if you want. Positive is positive. The batteries don't care what the car is doing as long as at the battery they're a match. I looks like a lot of it is in place. All I'd recommend is roll it over with the starter and no plugs in it 1st. Let a little oil splash around in it, let the starter drive kick in n out a time or 3. Last thing I'll say, I don't care much for starting fluid but if you must use it, oil it up after. That **** dries internal parts and speeds up cylinder seizures. I hope I'm helping cuz it looks more intact than I imagined.
I'll go get one....but Model A ....the terminal box on the firewall is "hot" even to the coil if you check with a volt meter to ground. The stock pop out dash switch gives ground to the distributor breaker plate....just 'grounding' the distributor doesn't do it....
