TIPS
•
Do NOT disconnect ANY electric wire, when the engine is running. This is bad practice when using
high-tech electronic systems, such as the 123ignition.
•
Sparks are much stronger with a 123ignition: use good quality sparkplug leads.
•
Resistor-core silicone leads are the better choice! Do not use solid core wire, these send out quite
a lot of electromagnetic noise that interferes with electronic devices.
•
Fresh spark plugs to go with the new coil and wires will ensure optimum ignition performance.
•
Replace the cap and rotor every 30.000 km. Here is ordering information :

TUNING
In the table presented below, you can see that the 16 curves are divided in four groups of four curves.
Each group has a different maximum advance ( 20, 24, 28 & 32 degrees), and the 4 curves within each
group have different rates of advance.
Assume you want to tune your engine, and you know the maximum advance ( with disconnected
vacuum! ) for this engine is 24 degrees. The first curve you should choose is curve '4', and if that works
well, step to curve '5' for improved throttle response.
