I wonder why?
I asked Jeff @ Advanced Distributors that very same "why" question just
yesterday because I saw it on the website and thought this represented a new
position for him.
here is his response:
"RFI noise from plugs wires causes a misfire and I see it on the dyno.
Put in points, gain power. Its a repetitive issue I see with insanely
great regularity.
Jeff"
It so happens that I own a chassis dyno and literally less than an hour ago
had a customer TR6 on the dyno with a distributor rebuild by Advanced
Distributors with a Pertronix ignitor in it. The car makes really good power
and has no miss anywhere in the power band and has a nearly flat air/fuel
curve. Time is money around here, so there is no way I'm going to put points
in this distributor to test Jeff's claim - this car runs great, so its going
home with the pertronix in it. We have had many TR6s on this dyno - only
a few with Pertronix in them, but I have seen no evidence of misfire in any
of them
There are many "experts" in our hobby. Some may be wrong, but none are in
doubt. ;-)
Cheers,
Jack Mc
