This weekend I installed a Pertronix in the 25D distributor of my 72MGB-GT. It was easy to do, but now I understand why there are so many questions about installation from listers--the instructions a

A fluctuating tach needle indicates that the pulsing of current through the coil is not consistent, hence the fluctuating idle. Was it OK with points? If so go back and if it is still OK there is a p

Thanks for your reply. Yes, it was steady with the points. They worked fine, but the distributor shaft bearing has some wear and the Pertronix is said to overcome a bit of shaft wobble. The Pertroni

I installed the Pertronix in my '71 and the idle came out smoother. The Pertronix caused a huge initial shift in the timing, but after adjustment all was fine. I set the timing to the same spec. Did

That's true, which is about its only advantage, but the effects of mild wear are likely to be insignificant on the road, and should not be considered as a 'cure' for extreme wear. However the 'huge s

Seems that nothing is ever quite as simple as one would wish. Last spring, the wobble in the distrib shaft was so great that dwell was swinging +/- 5 degrees off the specified 60 degrees. I ordered

Of course it can! In the real world there's a thing called "contact bounce." This occurs at the time a switch closes. That what the points are - a switch. Also, there's no such thing as a switch with
