    Ignitor Electronic Ignition

    Thanks Ken; you have been so helpful in answering my questions concerning the magnetic ring. No wonder, I have had so much problems in trying to follow all of the suggestions that you and others on the forum have given me to sort out why my Ignitor was not working. While several have mentioned...

    Ignitor Electronic Ignition

    Indiana Ken: Thanks for your comments and findings. You are evidently right in regard to distance of the module from the magnets. I know that I have installed the module correctly because it only fits one way on the plate that they sent to replace the points plate. Also, when I looked at the...

    Ignitor Electronic Ignition

    Bob, thank you for your comment and suggestion. I'm completely in the dark with regard to the magnet ring and the 4 magnets. I have had several including a local fella talk about these magnets, but I have not followed through to find these magnets and study the problem that alignment could...

    Ignitor Electronic Ignition

    I appreciate your taking the time to help me with this problem. I have taken my distributor off of the motor for bench testing and have performed several tests with no success or at least, I'm still in the dark on the solution to my problem, (no sparks to the plugs). Indiana, I will go through...

I...

    I'm in trouble again-Electronic ignition

    I purchased and have installed a Pertronix Electronix Ignition, according to the instructions received with the Kit. It came with a conversion kit of the distributor to handle the separately installed coil. My 9N tractor had previously been converted to a 12 V system, so I was able to wire...

    Installation of Ignitor Electronic Ignition

    It appears that I have put you all though a considerable effort in response to my problem unnecessarily. However, less you think it was completely without purpose, I want to remind you of the good electrical engineering lesson you have taught me. :oops: :D Thank you so very much!!

    Installation of Ignitor Electronic Ignition

    DUH, My Pertronix coil does not have an inscription but the part tag says 2.9 ohm. I assume that it is the resistance of the coil and would indicate direct hook up to the 12 v through the switch without any additional resistance. Right? Thank you for directing my attention to the coil...

    Installation of Ignitor Electronic Ignition

    I'm installing an Pertronix Ignitor electronic ignition with the 40,00 volt coil. It's instructions indicates a minimum primary resistance of 3.0 ohms is required. My question is: Do I go directly to the 12V battery though the ignition switch or do I need to go though either the ceramic...
