Hi All
Anyone have any experience with failed pertronix or other electronic ignition. What were the symptoms of the failure? Cure?

Re: Electronic ignition failures ?
I have Pertronix. It was running great then magically started missing. As I recall more so at higher RPM. I hadn't changed anything else, but I checked the fuel first, since it had similar symptoms to when it runs lean. All that seemed fine, switched out the Pertronix and it ran normal again.

Re: Electronic ignition failures ?
Some times they fail when they warm up before they fail completely. Run fine cold.

Re: Electronic ignition failures ?
One MAJOR problem of putting IC component on old autos is the alternator . They leaked A/C current
( spikes) into the system .
