First off: Newbie here with a 1980 B
Related pix: https://www.scaledatacom.com/mgb/
The car has what I think is an electronic ignition (noted in Pic 3). I think this is a replacement as my car has the taped-off group of wht,wht/blu and wht/blk wires that other folks have which indicates the original elec ignition was swapped out for this newer one.
From this ignition box are 5 wires:
red goes to + on coil
black goes to - on coil
purple is ground
bundle of 1 wht and 1 blk wire go directly into distriubutor.
There are 2 connectors that I think were nudged loose by me while futzing in the engine bay but I'm not 100% sure and don't want to connect them if they're not supposed to be conncted. Pic 5 illustrates this.
Basically, I'm trying to figure out if the wht/grn wires should be conncted to the the wht/blk wires given the current ignition setup the car has.
Thanks in advance for any help!
