I installed a Pertronix on a Ferguson 35 and it worked fine until.... After a heavy snowfall, I started the tractor to let it warm before moving some snow. I let it run while I did some other chores. After one half hour or so I noticed the tractor was no longer running. I thought maybe iceing as it was single digit temps so checked everything and saw nothing wrong. Tried to restart and no-go. Too cold to further trouble shoot. After the weather moderated, I pulled the distributor cap and noticed a burned plastic odor. Inspection showed a pile of melted plastic in place of the module. Changed back to original points and condensor. Still no fire. Changed coil and started right up. Bottom line, I have no idea what caused the meltdown.
