Review on PerTronix 1864LA Ignitor Bosch Cylinder by Fock Dean

works great! This is suitable for Bosch distributors that rotate clockwise when looking at the distributor shaft (also called "left" distributor). The part number on the distributor nameplate ends with "051". Yes, there are cables that need to be extended to connect to the factory wiring. Don't worry, it's in the manual. There is also an existing component that needs to be trimmed slightly to allow the new magnet wheel to match the spacing of the original cam. Again, no big deal. To be on the safe side, I also replaced the ballast resistor due to its age (original factory part). I had an old CD secondary which this single unit replaced (along with the breakpoints of course). My fuel injection was already timed correctly so I had no problems with it after installing this part. In no case should the injection system depend on the ignition system. You should also check the ignition timing; The time setting is correct at the factory and the engine must not overheat.
