I have the same problem with a brand new Pertronix unit!  It is sitting in
my garage and points are sitting in my dizzy!

just my two cent's worth, I had the same problem with the unit I bought,
after installing the petronix into my TR6 the car was missing worse than
Cheanny is.
I called the company and was told that their product was good and my
installation technique was wrong, in other words it's your fault and stop
bothering us,  even a retired idiot like myself doesn't require supervision
to install the pentronix, I have the unit collecting dust in the garage, and
guess what my TR6 is running great with points and condensor.
