First of all, control the breaker points for a correct setting as per the constructors instructions, or better,
use a new set of points, before installing the ignition system.



The existing ignition condenser is to be disconnected. This is very important.
This condenser may be inside or outside the distributor.

ex.: On a 2 cylinders Citroën, this condenser is fitted to the breakers, thus unscrew the nut and remove out of the car.



Supple leads of minimum 1mm square are to be used to make the connections, this to increase the func-
tion security. All connections and contacts are to be checked and must be good. A bad soldering or a bad
contact may conduct to some headaches.



These four leads (connections 1, 2, 3 and 4)
may already be soldered to the PCB of the
ignition system, make them long enough so
they could be cut later at the
desired length.



Seek for an adequate to mount the ignition
system. Do not place the system under the
canopy without being boxed or insulated,
because the oxidation and other
atmospheric circumstances may shorten the
life of the transistorized ignition system.
