M38A1 - Distributer Ignition Wire interference with Alternator

[Wayne Hingley]

Yes, I think you are correct with the idea of old-stock crossover parts usage from the overlap period. Very little appears to have been touched on this vehicle post service. Other than the change from metal connectors to rubber; its great that all of these M-series vehicles have so many interchangeable parts for a 30+ year period.

I did cut-out and replace the old splice on the harness for these two connectors to make them a bit cleaner. I replaced the soldered and taped splice with a good connector and heat shrink.
