Hi Folks,
My cobbled together electronic ignition was driving me crazy, my car was dying when it got warm/hot.
Tried the ICM, the alternator, the coil, the ballast and the regulator, all to no avail.
Only thing I didn't replace was the distributor p/u and reluctor, (been waiting 3 weeks for a parts delivery) so I said, F this. Rebuilt an old points distributor I had lying around and now the world is a beautiful place and I can trust my car again.
I understand points, I used to ride a BSA, I don't get things that can't be tested or fixed on the side of the road.
