Re: Pertronix Ignitor
Rich69, your comment about shimming the shaft is spot on! I believe it is the single most reason why some people say the Pertronix is a problem. It's not difficult to pull the distributor and remove the gear and shim it, but failure to have the gap within specs will cause the engine to sputter or shut off because it won't get any spark at higher rpms, as the shaft raises up (as it is supposed to do).
