Just started the 73 2.0L
I noticed from most pictures that most folks do not have factory coil. To get more spark should you change it out? Mine seems to start good but right now have a bad muffler. I noticed the Pertronix ignition and flame thrower coil for $110. Not really wanting to buy stuff unless necessary. What do you experts say about this? Is it necessary? |

You won't get a hotter spark with the use of a pointless module and the stock coil. If you want a hotter spark, upgrade the coil and mod your ignition rotor to rid the resistive component.
Also, when using the pointless module, don't use copper core plug wires. |
