Very good to know but, what is the reason?????


Manufacturer's look bad when it takes 2 weeks to get their points adjusted In small engines I'm sure the reason is cost and packaging


Most likely reliability and longer service interval, lower maintenance costs.   My shop vehicle just turned 160,000 miles yesterday and has never had a tune up, original wires , cap, plugs everything. A points system just can't get that done, I remember maintaining the family cars growing up, we had 4 cars in the family and I was always tuning one of them up.


JMO, but manufacturing cost is usually the reason for widespread industry changes like this. I imagine it is more expensive to pay someone to set points than just plug in a module.

When I converted mine to electronic, my imagination went wild. You know, thinking it fired up quicker and noticeable throttle response. Hey Sampson, you live in Clinton?
