I owned a Tartan 27 during the 1980s, moved to a Hunter 30, and now moving back to to my second Tartan 27, a 1969, and I'm reworking the A4 at this time.
I purchased a used Delco Distributor with the Ignitor electronic upgrade, but did not receive any paperwork with it. I need to know how it is wired and how to time it to the engine. Can anyone help?
I assume the coil should also be changed. I see that Pertronics sells a 40,000 volt coil. internally resisted, in several different resistances, 1.5 ohm, 3 ohm and 6 ohm. which one do I need?
I notice that the RJ12C spark plug is used with the Indigo electronic distributor. Is this plug also preferred over the J8C for the Ignitor ignition?
One last question. Because I'm on a tight budget, I'm painting my A4 with 500 degree BLUE engine paint instead of the standard Gold. Do you think that this will affect performance in any way? I hope not.
