The electronic kit replaces the existing points and condenser with a new reliable electronic module. The electronic ignition module has been developed to work with the standard ignition coil and provides service-free and accurate ignition timing. The kit can be easily fitted to standard points type distributors without having to fit a new electronic ignition coil.
Installation:
1 Make sure the ignition switch is OFF
2 Remove the distributor cap with leads and put it aside.
3 Remove the old rotor arm and put it aside.
4 Remove and discard the contact points and condenser and wire, and retain the fixing screws.
5 Fit the new ignition module to the base plate using the old fixing screws (Note the locating peg on the base plate) and tighten the screws firmly for good heat distribution.
6 Insert the black rubber plug in the body slot and check there is sufficient slack in the wires inside the distributor to leave the base plate free to rotate.
7 Fit the new red trigger, ensuring it is aligned with the top of the spindle lobes and push home fully. Be careful not to use too much force.
8 Refit the rotor arm fully on the shaft with the locating tag, if the cap and clips do not fit correctly the trigger and/or the rotor arm are not fitted correctly!
9 Make sure the coil (already in the car)is connected correctly. If the coil is connected the wrong way it will work with normal contact points, but damage the electronic module. (see drawing)
10 Connect the red wire to the positive terminal of the coil and the other wire to the negative.
11 Refit the distributor cap, do not force the clip, check the cap fits snugly before starting the engine.
12 Check the ignition timing and adjust where necessary to gain the best performance.
The electronic module can be damaged by too high a voltage or an ignition coil with low resistance.
