[Healeys] Healey Beliefs

[Alan Seigrist]

Yes, I bought a very early Pertonix unit for my BJ8 back in 1992 (or
something like that), used it for 10 years/40K miles and the magnetic rotor
delaminated due to a design fault (that they have long since corrected).

I put points back in, sent the unit to Pertronix, and they replaced it no
questions asked eventhough the warranty had expired by about a decade.

I'll never go back.  I have 2 Pertronix modules and 2 Pertronix distributors
in all 4 of my cars now.  I drive my cars daily.

The main thing I like about them is once I set timing & carbs, my cars don't
go out of tune anymore.  The wandering dwell with contact breakers is the
main culprit causing LBCs to wander out of tune, both with the distributor
and carbs.
