I wanted to check first... As mentioned above, the '85 Buick Regals with
the
3.8L v-6 have a 7-terminal module. I didn't take the cap off (it has
four
screws holding it in place). I don't know what it's like on the inside.
There
are wires exiting the side of the distrib that run up to the cap.

If this is viable, there's a bunch of these cars in the yards...
