how about for a stock vacuum advance 050 dizzy? does this one fit that as
well?
Thanks Rodney. I am learning a lot from you.
I think my condensor just went, so Im gonna snag one of these bad boys.
Thanks for the vid! Very simple looking.
i really need to get this for my ghia used them before and was very happy
with the results
Why Do you have to take the Distributor Out?
Awesome, I bought a Compufire electronic ignition 15 or so ago for my 63
Beetle with a 2010cc detuned race motor, it was a different style with the
coil pack mounting on the doghouse. I thought that was a great ignition and
I can imagine that this is too, but I love that the original coil and dist
cap is used and the module is where the points mount. I would imagine it’s
even more reliable but I wonder, is this a more powerful spark using the
original rotor cap and coil than the type I bought?
Great thanks worked for me
Thanks from a guy who just brought home my 1965 splitty Camper, that will
come in handy!
I’ve got a compufire that must be 10-15 years old by now. I carry a spare
set of points, but it hasn’t let me down yet.
Do not use the provided spacer from Compufire. Leaves the module too far
from the rotor. Be sure you can see the shaft groove.
Had the compu-fire bought from another distribitor which i will never use
again installed it properly but i failed on us so we got the compu-tronix
one from you guys and installed it love the fact that you don’t have to
mess with the points anymore and it has not failed a week after the
instalation.like the compu-fire did
It didn’t work for me
