Something really does sound fishy here. If the positive terminal on the battery goes to ground, then you need to get power to the distributor from the NEGATIVE side of the battery. Doesn't matter if it comes from the key switch or a jumper wire, the power has to come from the - side of the battery, not the + side. This completes the circuit. Something might still be haywire inside the distributor, but after it's fixed, IF it needs to be fixed, you still need to get power to it to get spark and the only way you will do that is to get the power from the NEGATIVE terminal if the POSITIVE terminal is grounded to the frame. Let us know when you get her running. Jim
