Electronic ignition question

Unread post by snuffy » January 2nd, 2010, 12:30 am

I discovered in my stash of distributors that 2 or 3 were electronic ignition. What's involved in using one of these on my early 151?

Thanks

every type of ignitor (points, Prestolite electronic or Swiss Control electronic) fits every year of the 151 without any changes or adaptations

Thanks, Horst!
I don't know how I missed your post on Jan. 2, but I did. I normally try not to be rude. Sorry!
Thanks for your comments.
