Subject: Pertronix Ignition - source of "power surge?"
I recently switched from points and condenser to Pertronix Electronic
Ignition. I seem to recall some listers, either here or the Spridgets list,
having problems with this system.
My timing is set correctly with a timing light. My 1969 TR6 seems to be
somewhat sluggish when accelerating. But occasionally upon acceleration, I
get a "power surge" during which the engine seems to be running as it should
be. It feels and sounds about the same as when a V8 with a 4 barrell carb
opens up the secondary jets.
Has anyone had a similar experience with the Pertronix system? I have not yet
switched back to points to see if the problem is corrected. All plugs and
wires, rotor cap, etc are new and in good shape.
Thanks
Billy
