Was checking up on ignition upgrades from Pertronix again and saw that they offer the Ignitor III for our vacuum dizzies now. Supposed to work like a box style ignition without the box(multiple spark, rev limiter). Did a search here and didn't see anything for that model. Anybody used an Ignitor III and have any useful feedback on or off a Porsche? Not looking for opinions on whether or not Pertronix belongs in our cars or not, just on the functionality of the Ignitor III. With that said, I know this may start a (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stromberg.gif) storm..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stirthepot.gif)

I just installed the III and cannot seem to get the engine to idle any one have any experience with getting the III run in a stock 2.0 D-JET?
Also I'm running a stock coil, I checked the resistance and it is 2.3 ohms with no wire attached and am running Magencore Electrosport 70 SS25 200T spark plug wires. Any thoughts or direction would be appreciated. Regards, Dan |

Regards, Dan I've run a stock and Bosch blue coil with Ignitor 1 but pertronix matching coil with Ignitor 11, I don't know the impedance required for the Ignitor 111 but would be surprised if the stock is compatible. Do you have the correct air gap between pickup and dizzy shaft ?,1mm from memory. You can't run solid core leads with the newer ones as per instructions. |
