| Notes | This is Basically the Same as the 3231 Used in Earlier Applications, Except This Unit Uses a 6mm Solenoid Ignition Terminal Stud (LH), Rather Than a Spade (LH). (Vintage Lester Books Had Used This Number for the Prestolite OE # MAW4018, Which Had No Verifiable Application, and Therefore Was Dropped). |
