The Optronic ignition replaces points and condensors by mounting an optical switch in the distributor using a distributor-specific fitting kit. A fan-like “chopper” fitted is over the distributor cam, rotates through the optical switch, breaks the infrared beam and triggers the external power module to fire the coil. This produces a perfectly timed, rock solid spark.
Only 3 wires are connected to the vehicle: one to the iginition switch, one to the vehicle body earth and the third to the negative terminal of the coil. The engine is then ready to be timed.
By using the distributor's original vacuum and mechanical advance mechanism, Optronic ignitions ensure your engine timing is the one the manufacturer developed for the vehicle.
