Nawlens: Can you recommend that electronic ignition with a straight face? I've noticed some of your posts, and gather you are not a whole lot younger than I at 65 years of age.

In my lifetime, I've only ever had one distributor ignition let me down and by the way it was 48 years old. I've had 6 to 8 electronic ignitions let me down on the road, and none of them were 10 years old. One of them was a 3 year old 98 Olds with 403 engine and it died within 20 miles of a complete ignition ckeck up. The service center determined it needed plugs only, the day before.

Your going to have to do better than that to get me excited about electronic ignition. By the way my dad's 1957 Chevy 6 cylinder gave the same gas milage as my current 6 cylinder Buick LeSabre. Those cars probably weigh about the same, gee progress has been grand.

One more thing, I can't remember when I last put points and condencer in my SA. The only reason I remember 140 is I bought it 4 years ago and did it then. I did put a set of points and condencer in 130 when I replaced the distributor drive gears last Dec., only because it was easy at the time.
