This electronic points replacement unit was installed on my 1.7 when the engine was rebuilt, just before I got the car (engine never started or reinstalled at that point). Now the engine is in (5 years later) and I’m getting ready to try to fire it up for the first time. I’ve turned my attention to the distributor and since I have no experience with these electronic inserts and no installation instructions or paperwork, would first like to know if anyone recognizes this particular unit? - it’s red and I’m only seeing black ones on type 4 when searching. And is there any glaring mistakes that you guys see to the installation?

.. The Flamethrower will probably only work with your engine if you are running duel carbs, instead of the Djet FI system. Thanks - I have another type4, a 'GA' based 2056 that came with dual Italian Weber 40IDF's .. but it has stock points. Now that you mention it, I think that's why I bought this Flamethrower to begin with. Back before I'd worked out a plan for which engine I'd be installing in which project car. |
