Tom et al,
I've not yet installed my Petronix, but I have used electronic systems
on several bikes in the past. When they work, they work. Failure is
infrequent but there is no warning--it's just over. I saw a recent
suggestion to carry a points plate among your spares. I do that with my
bikes, and although I've yet to do a road-side replacement, I at least
have the capability to get rolling again in the unlikely event the
electronics puke on me.

FWIW,I was told that if the Pertronix was going bad, it doesn't give
any
warning--just goes---either works or it doesn't. Anyone confirm? As
far
as them failing, I have used it in my Healey for 6 years and in my
E-Type
for 5 years---never a wimper.
