What does the list recommend for replacement of ignition parts on a very
original 100-6?
I looked at Moss' offering and they have steel core wire and Lucas caps
to snap onto the spark plugs. Does the steel core matter? It doesn't
sound like a good conductor. The bumble bee wire is copper core, but it
doesn't look original.
The dizzy cap seems to be in good shape, so I will reuse that.
I'm figuring on using a red rotor.
Condensers have not been of good quality lately. Moss offers Lucas,
Intermotor, and a more expensive premium one. Is the premium one
better, or just more expensive?
I was also planning to use a Lucas point set, though the aftermarket set
is 1/3 the price. Is any of this Lucas stuff near the quality of the
original Lucas items, and worth paying more for? Perhaps there are
better alternatives from other sources.
No, I don't want to use a Pertronix Igniter.
Thanks for all of your help.
Charlie
