whats the advantage of fitting an electronic dizzy to an A+ engine, how much would it cost, and is there anyone west of Melbourne that can fit one properly.

bascically... smoother running - better idle, no adjustment (point gap), not affected by moisture...

cost varies depending on system used... there's the flame thrower, aldon, petronics, and recently found a cheap one from the uk..

'a mini is for life, not just for christmas!'

I don't think there is any advantage for you Davo, your car should have it.
Most A+ units do.

Davo, your EFI car should already have one.

Cheers,

They stay in tune longer, and are more resistant to wet weather.

There are a few options here-
Lucas electronic
Nissan Pulsar (fit an A+ drive dog on)
Pertronix Flamethrower (see link below)

Or, fit a Pertronix ignitor to the dizzy you already have.

Mini King has one new electronic distributor with the module fitted to the side of distributor Part Number AUU1086 Lucas Number 42635J , If this is of any help

Less radio interference

Just shows how much I know about the cars,

I will have to Give Steve a ring and find out what type I have on the car, is there and easy way of just looking and telling what type you have fitted.

Davo, if you open up the dizzy and don't see any points inside, you've got an electronic dizzy.

Davo if you're talking about your SPI mini.....it's electronic.
It's also different to a non-injection unit as well, it has even less stuff inside!

Open up the Dizzy, I can,t even see the top of it, that will be a job for " SUPER MECHANIC, when I get a chance, Grill, A/C Hose, A/C Radiator, HJorn, all have to be moved....

Will get around to it shortly.

_________________

I only have to get the grille off mine to get to the dizzy. Does your engine bay basically look like this?

contact Lindsey at minis plus mine just cost me $250.00 plus a few dollars for some other work.goes much better

Thats the problem, where your ECU is thats where my A/C Radiator goes and it takes up a crap load of room at the front of the Dissy...

My ECU is where your A/C Radiatior is, so their opposite....

Make sence...???????
