I am currently running a Bosch 050 with Crane optical points (not really "points" but a light beam and a disc, instead of points) and a Crane 3000 CD unit.
The problem is the 050 cap is crap. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif) The cap has aluminum conductors instead of copper like a 009. Also the cap does not fit in a notch in the body of the dizzy like a 009 does, so the cap can rotate slightly even when the clips are tight. So the question is do I stay with the 050 or go back to my 009? (I think I know what I'm going to do) What are some of you guys running???

Can't you just buy a new cap for the 050, and one with copper contacts?
(don't have my 050 handy to inspect to see what metal the contacts are) maybe an aftermarket cap is better than the one that came on your 050. (maybe it IS an aftermarket cap). |
