No, just after a new cap’n’rotor.

 

Got a part number for the rotor? Is it Beru as well?

 

My rotor does not have a number on

 

123 used to put the Bosch part numbers in the instructions. Just wondered what the corresponding Beru ones were.

 

In the instructions it lists bosch..1 234 332 024 or kw.. d 5026
But no beru number

 

I have spoken to Jim on email and he is going to be placing another order with Ignition123 next week and he is going to order a few spacers with his order, I would recommend dropping him an email if you are after one to make sure he orders enough.

 

Excuse my ignorance, but when you have fitted it and static timed it. Do you have to strobe time and adjust it like an original distributor?

 

Yes.
Static timing is just to get the engine started. With any ignition system - crank fire, distributor with points or electronic – its maximum advance that is important.

 

Resurrecting an old thread to ask how are you all getting on with your 123's?

Still toying with the idea.
2110cc type one engine.
009 with points.
Twin Dellortos.
Even having just re read this thread I still don't understand vac advance.
I haven't got any tubing from my carbs to the distributor!

 

Do they not do one without a vac advance I think that they do,
I ordered mine with if I remember

 

They do a non vac advance model which is a 009 replacement. Or one with vac advance

 

Don’t buy one with no vac advance. If you’ve got no pipework at the mo, just leave it disconnected. You can’t add it to the dissy later.

 

The only bit i understood from the thread is snottys sensible suggestion to get one with vac advance, even if you dont use it.

 

I know you love yours @snotty

What about the rest of you newer 123 owners?

 

I was going to get a buttys bits throttle kit, but wondering if that money would be better going towards a 123.

My throttle works fine, but then again so do my points!

Whats going to give me the return/smiles/ best bang for my buck?

 

Drugs! Spend it on weed and amphetamines

 

You could always keep your old distributor in your extensive on board spares stash. All set up and ready to go
