Subject: {Chrysler 300} 1962 Autolite Distributor Tech Manual

Hello fellow 300ers -

Does anyone happen to have a detailed manual for the 1962 Autolite Dual Point Distributor - either a web reference or PDF file?

I’m trying to start my 300H after an 18 month slumber and don’t appear to be getting spark - Fig. 80 of the Service Manual isn’t detailed enough/too small to read.

I checked coil low/high voltage circuits using a multimeter and resistance (ohms) is within spec so I think the coil is good.  I pulled a spark plug and got no arcing when attempting to turn over.  I took off the distributor cap for a look and everything appears in order with the exception of a stud that has a wire from one set of points attached, continuing through a casing hole where it has a wire secured with a 3/16 nut and wire that connects to the negative terminal of the coil.  This stud and nut were somewhat loose.  There is a wire leading from the positive terminal on the coil to the condenser which I believe is for radio static supression.

Appreciate any/all help!

Kurt
