I don't recall if this was covered in the previous discussion of the Crane electronic ignition. I just installed one on my 66 Midget and it seems that the car will run perfectly for 5 minutes and the

This is a typical semiconductor symptom. It sounds like the drive transistor is semi-fried and internal heating during operation is causing it to malfunction. Return the unit for a replacement. This

Gentle people, I can't stand itany longer. Haven't you folks figured out that you're adding an unnecessary complexity to these cars by installing an electronic ignition? If you would take the money t

Not really Bill, When I bought my B the mechanical advance mechanism was frozen, and the vacuum diaprhagm was leaking. The bushings were in good shape as were the springs, etc. I fixed all that stuff

Crank it up again and when it quits, test the module according to the troubleshooting instructions. Do you have a spare coil? Charley Robinson <ccrobins@ktc.com>

Is the module securely mounted to a very large clean piece of metal somewhere (firewall or fender)? It needs to sink heat away from it to stay cool, that's why it's in that finned box. Conducting hea

You have a point, Bill. Probably two in your car, too. But, if points are just a trigger mechanism, then going from mechanical to solid state actually _decreases_ complexity. Fewer moving parts, no w

Thanks for the heads up. There are a lot of confused people, then , me included. I guess the bottom line for me is that my brief survey suggests few if any problems with the Ignitor; not so with the
