Pertronix Ignitor

[1BAD68]

Just installed it in my Charger, no more points to adjust. I got an instant improvement in starting the car, it fires up right away, it also runs alot smoother and when I put it in gear it locks into a very steady 600 rpm idle.
For 65 dollars this was a great upgrade.

I installed one in my '64 Vette 6 years ago, and it worked well, so I had one installed in the Charger when it was restored.

put one in almost every car we work on that is still running points...

So, what does this thing do? does it replace something in the distributor?
an item worth buying?

the pertronics is a completely self contained electronic replacement for the points , , personally I am not a fan , I have seen at least that were intermittent & the car would not start from time to time, one of the big mistakes is most people connect the 2 wires to the coil , this doesn`t give 12v to the system , the red wire Has to be connected to the blue 12 V switched ign wire near the ballast to work properly
