Looking at the Hot-Spark.com page.
A parts place here is a distributor of their products. He stopped selling the Pertronix and all other electronic ignition kits... EXCEPT THE HOT-SPARK. He had a batch of bad Pertronix and the manufacturer would not do anything warranty wise. So he moved on to these. In three years has had one bad one and the warranty service he said was fantastic. So i am trying to decide whick one to get... The vacuum-advance or centrifugal-advance? Pros and cons of each? |

He says stock 2.0 FI
The D-jet dizzy has another set of points that trigger the injectors, so NO these dizzys will not work. You could use one of the ignition points kits. |

QUOTE Distributor is a genuine Bosch 0 231 170 034 - a Bosch OEM version of the federal model VW 043-905-205 distributor that came stock from the factory on the 1974 VW Beetle with 1600 engine, 34PICT carburetor and manual transmission. Perfect for use with the 34PICT carburetor. The 2.0 dizzy is sort of like a double dizzy. It has one set of points for the ignitiion and a whole other set to trigger the fuel injection. So no. Yes it will work on carbs, but it's basicly a 009 and on the T4 you might have a better luck stuffing your dizzy hole full of dog (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stromberg.gif) |
