[Healeys] Champions(again)

[Reinhart Rosner (aon)]

I am not yet convinced of electronic ignition and still run the standard
setup in my Healey. But I attended a lecture held by a specialist who
teaches the mechanics for the Austrian Automobile Club and owns a TR 3,
which he restored himself.

He already has a 123 ignition in his car and told us that you can try to
achieve good ignition with a standard distributor. But it still will vary
and under some circumstances will not be correct. Electronic ignition will
work rather perfect and will bring ignition just at the right time. This
will treat your engine more gently and save you some money with better
efficiency of the engine.

I am still thinking about it as I think that I could rather help myself with
a standard distributor than with any kind of electronic. On the other hand
mechanics knowing how to deal with a distributor are getting less and less.

I have, in my Honda, my Nissan and our aging BMW.  I like the Healey because

it is relatively antiquated, I do not understand the desire to modernize
them, but each to their own - there are no rules.
