ignition system update question
 
My '89 165hp (3.7l 4cyl) I/O needs a new coil. I thought I would upgrade and get rid of the points / condensor system for a more modern and reliable breakerless type system. I'm looking for suggestions. Anyone have any experiance with this?

thanks
Rick

Rick, there have been some "dead-on" ignition upgrades here ... since I'm outboard, I don't remember specifics, but a couple of the I/O guys have made this improvement...hopefully they'll be along to give ya the specs ;) ...

You can probably pick up a PERTRONIX setup with there coil and upgrade with your existing distributor.

i'd agree with using Pertronix. Ebay 65$. I am doing it in the spring.

I thought I was going to have to replace mine earlier and when I checked into it Mallory will take your old distrbr and convert it over to electronic for about $70.

Look them up on the net.
