Review on 🔧 ACCEL 59125 Distributor: Enhancing Performance with GM Opti-Spark II Replacement by Ben Walls

I gave my 1997 Pontiac Trans Am a major overhaul. Since I had a leak in the timing gear cover I decided to replace the Opti. I ordered this Accel and did all the work on the car. It was April 10, 2015, now it's November 21, 2015 and my car is dead. It just died on me in the middle of a busy street while I was sitting at a traffic light. Find out what this Opti Spark is. This thing didn't last a year. The original, which I've never had any problems with, lasted 17 years, I only changed it as I had to take it off to replace the timing gasket. I can't return it so I have to buy another one with the money to get the car running again. I'm really shocked by this crap from ACCEL as they are supposed to be a great brand. If you need a new Opti, I suggest you spend more money and get the original version. The problem with the Opti is that there are no warning signs to let you know it's failing, it just stops and you're amazed. Difficult and quite expensive to change, I'd love to meet a GM genius who thinks this setup is a good idea. Take it from me, leave it where it is. Sorry, but that's not good.
