Same here in the wiring diagrams nothing even videos from this forum it just shows a basic wire. I guess I’ll just use a regular wire to keep it running. Thanks for your help

It’s defiantly stock type of parts from that time period but I have no clue if it belongs. I’d assume since it is all original. But here are some pics. Thank you for your time.

I need some help and please forgive me if I posted in wrong place. I don’t know how to work this forum very well. I have a customer that has a 51 packard straight 8. No spark. During testing I found no current flow from coil to inside the distributor this is caused by a small black case that says auto lite on it. Inside is is a small is a small light bulb. I used just a basic jumper wire with alligator clips to make vehicle run. But I’m having trouble finding out what this part is and how to get a new one. This car is all original and very clean so I’d like to help my customer keep it that way. Having trouble finding a web site to be able to order parts also like points and condenser… thanks in advance. Again forgive me I’m a modern car tech first ever Packard I’ve seen.
