Hi Now converted to electronic ignition. So no more points setting, burning out, bounce etc. Better spark and allegedly better fuel economy and slight increase in power.
Time taken under 1 hr. Tools needed a spanner sized to the coil terminals and a flat blade screwdriver plus a wire crimper.
1st Take note of current wire connections, disconnect battery, remove dizzy cap, disconnect current wiring from coil to dizzy.
2nd Remove rotor put aside you will still need this, remove 3 set screws from base plate and put aside, gently lift the base plate away from dizzy complete with contact in place and the fly lead attached, put this in a nice little box along with 1 of the set screws from the base plate (you may want to keep these in case you want to revert back to points).
3rd Slide on electronic trigger base plate and secure with 2 of the set screws, slide on the blue magnet ring over the cam, push down gently, replace the rotor, slip the 2 wires out of the dizzy via the slot in the cap, replace the cap.
4th Now connect the wires, the white wire to the - terminal on the coil, the black to the live feed you disconnected from the coil earlier (mine also fed the fuel pump),
DO NOT CONNECT THESE TO THE COIL, connect the + terminal of the coil to earth.
5th Reconnect battery, get in car and start her up!!!!! If you done it right it will start. Simple.
Heres the pics:

This is a powerspark conversion and cost me £45.
Hope useful Cheers Gary[
