[AT] Pertronix ignition (was Re: (no subject)

[Mike Sloane]

I have installed Pertronix ignition modules in half a dozen IH tractors 
and one Ford 860. In every case, the performance, fuel consumption, and 
reliability improved significantly. If they weren't so expensive, that 
would be the first thing I would do to any tractor I bought.

It should be noted that the piece that fits over the distributor shaft 
is a very tight fit and sometimes takes a little extra effort to get it 
all the way down. Failure to seat that piece will definitely result in 
poor performance or no start.
