Electronic Ignition

Post by RGrew176 »

This looks like the year I will finally install electronic ignition in my Carver. I am going to use my stimulus check and stimulate my mechanics pocketbook. The kit he uses includes two new distributors and coils and wiring. I am also going to have him change out the sparkplugs at the same time.The current plugs along with the points have been installed since 2015 just before I bought the boat.

As long as nothing else breaks down that is the plan.

No. Would have to ask the mechanic what brand he plans to install.
