Yes, when switching from a points distributor to an electronic distributor in a 1979 Ford F-250, you typically need to modify the wiring. This includes removing the points ignition components and potentially adding a power source for the electronic ignition module. Ensure that the wiring harness is compatible with the new distributor, and double-check for any necessary changes to the ignition coil, as electronic distributors often require a different coil than points systems.
