Got the 123Ignition yesterday, I pushed all of my projects back!
"Sorry granny I'll get to those bearings on your heart/lung machine soon, I promise." Blocked out 3 hours for the removal and install. Added about an hour to charge the battery. Installed as expected, there is a spacer that is necessary for type 4, just slides over the dizzy shaft. I decided to route the wires and vacuum away from the fan so access to the vacuum nipple was easier, since the vacuum can is gone there's a lot more space. Followed the instructions but made the mistake of using the TDC 0* instead of the 27* as the basic timing point. I just walked the dizzy CCW until she started! Didn't do anything other than matched my timing with my idle, I let her run till she settled down. Just around the block once, ha ha the trailer hitching is GONE! Responsive throttle, man! Setting up a tuning session, nice 150 mile run up the California coast with the AFR meter. Mike |

I just ordered a new Bosch (Blue) coil, new plugs, and new wires. After the install this weekend, and settling (for now) on the proper advance curve setting, I am still having issues with very difficult restarts. Starts no issue when cold. But if you kill it and even try an immediate restart it's a chore (if it will start at all). I still need to verify timing on the new curve setting, but I'm hoping those new ignition components will resolve that issue.
