In case you didnt see my other post about going back to points from a failed e-module, I seem to get an easier cold start, especially after changing the ballast resistor. As 79 has written, maybe the timing was off with the e-module, as I never checked it when I put it in. So, maybe my upgrade was actually a downgrade! As most are.

NO you just never finished the install by not setting the timing and carb correctly and expected the new conversion to perform a magic trick it's not capable of with out being installed completely. Most aparts are install and adjust not just bolt them on and go and that's what got you into trouble.

Back then (2001) when I installed it, I did not have all the help from CCF and folks like you to show me light/spark! I dont think the instructions mention checking timing, but I can see how it would be neccessary.
