Igntion System
Pickup Coil
The pickup coil is not serviced separately but as an
assembly with the bottom plate, pole piece and
permanent magnet. This assembly, called the "pole
piece and plate" in the parts book, should not be
disassembled because the pole piece is centered
around the axis of the distributor shaft during
production. This sets the clearance between the teeth
of the pole piece and timer core. There are different
pole pieces and plate assem-blies available. The
correct part number of the pole piece and plate
assembly for a particular engine should be determined
from the appropriate parts book. The part number of a
pole piece and plate assembly can be determined by
visual inspection by the colored ties or connectors and
the number of teeth on the timer core and pole piece.

(figure 6-12) with EST distributors. The remote coiI
can be easiIy identified by its mounting brackets and
the high tension terminal.
