Yeah I'm quoting myself but I wish to elaborate.

With various non LR vehicles in the past silicon leads just seemed to fail, obvious firing on 6 or 7 cyls only, even with relatively new leads.

The local garage had a lead tester they loaned me and I found that half their new ones failed on the rack. They thought it was a bit funny too. All silicon.

Somehow or other I ended up with a set of these Bosch leads in my RRC pos that runs points through a MSD thing that drops the voltage across the points to sweet fa. A bit like peasant level electronic dizzy, except I can go back to points only in the boonies if something goes wrong just by removing 3 wires.

What changed? No more genuine Bosch dizzy caps cracking and carbon tracking (20,000 k's regular max). No more backfires...... my pos is always started on lpg, Same NGK plugs in for 130,000 with no loss of anything, especially money.

Sure they're black and skinny, sure they're cheap, sure they're not sexy but they are doing the job they should be doing, very well.

cheers, DL

Thanks for that info. I may yet spend the $600
Just to update I took the bob weights from the old dizzy and put them in the new one.
Have to say the build quality of the old one is far superior to the new one.
Anyway once installed it runs well on gas but quite fluffy from take off with petrol
I'm going to now swap the vac advance form the old dizzy to the new as perhaps the advance might be a little out.
If that fails I'll be off the performance ignition. I had a dizzy done for my old mgb which was excellent

Scorcher dizzy fixed everything
Thankyou All for your thoughts
John

Ended buying a scorcher dizzy from performance ignition and all my ignition issues died a sudden death.
Runs perfectly on lpg and petrol HOWEVER lately when on petrol it appears to starve for fuel. If you boot it; it dies and splutters in the exhaust pipe. If you open it up gently it goes reasonably ok.
Fuel starvation? blocked filter, water in fuel, faulty MAF as a consequence of one to many misfires, fuel pump [it does seem a little noisy at times]
What do people think?
