Editing Duraspark ignition

==Introduction==
Ford used the Duraspark ignition system for quite a few years.

==Duraspark II ignition system==
The Duraspark II was used between 1977 and 1984. There were at least two different types that can be identified by the color of the connector to the amplifier box- one is blue the other is yellow. They use a 2-piece distributor cap, the top cap has the terminals, the bottom is an adapter that fits onto the small diameter distributor body and fits the larger diameter cap section to it.

The system consists of the distributor, coil (external), amplifier box, wiring, and connectors.
