Electronic Ignition System

Lucas 35DLM8 distributor is employed. This has a conventional vacuum advance unit and centrifugal automatic advance mechanism. A pick-up module, in conjunction with a rotating timing reluctor inside the distributor body, generates timing signals. These are applied to an electronic ignition amplifier module mounted on the side of the distributor body.

NOTE: The pick-up air gap is factory set. Do not adjust the gap unless the pick-up is being changed or the base plate has been moved. Use a non-ferrous feeler gauge to set the air gap.
