Hi Derek, please let us know how you get on with it, having replaced points & condenser 3 times in the last four years, i like the idea of fitting electronic ignition  |

Maplins do an electronic ignition kit that achieves the same as this. If you can handle a soldering iron you can save a few quid. I had one on my Bond Bug and many years ago on a Cortina. They make a very noticeable difference in starting and running. You throw away the condenser and keep the points but now a new set will last 50,000 miles. Highly reccomended. http://www.maplin.co.uk/ignition-amplifier-kit-3162 |

this elctronic ignition seems very tempting but does anyone have a guide on how to fit it? I'm sorry but i'm a bit of a spanner i normally work on classic minis with engine transplants (ecu's injection models ignition already done)!
