Powerspark Electonic ignition system install

[lizardman99]

Hi there guy i have been looking for a new electronic ignition system to install in to my van i noticed a few different shops on the flea-bay and went round comparing prices from different shopfronts i came across simonbbc who was the cheapest.

The item was well packed and in a small clear plastic box with easy to follow instructions on the back

As for installation there really is not much to talk about here was a 10 minute job (with a cup of tea ) simply took the points out and replaced it woth the 'Powerspark' system and now every thing works fine now he dose the distributors as well might have to get my self one of those as well.

Improvements-
only took a few minutes to install and no more messing around with the points
Better Spark
Fires up First time every time (so far)
good customer service


Disadvantages-
I got cold in this horrible British weather

has any one else brought anything from him. No images atm as board quota has been reached

yeah a few on the reliant forum have had them with mixed results. some have been fine with no probs, and some have been faulty

Was that the early Blue kits because my mate had one of those from somewhere and they had problems but the new Powerspark kit the red one is the business most of the others are £30 but their site has the at more like £27, I got one anyway after being told about it by a mate who has had his for a bit... aren't the reliants those small things with 3 wheels ?

yeah a lot of the blue ones died in a hot engine. some of the red ones have too, but not many.

1. Just take out the 2 screws on the points set
2. Add some white grease from the kit to the bottom of the new module
3. Place the trigger ring over shaft.
4. place new rotor arm on top of the shaft (if you have brought one).
5. Line up the screws and new module giving you about a 1mm gap between the trigger ring and module
6. Attach the red wire to the live of the coil
7. The black wire to the negative side of the coil
8. Cup of tea
9. Done
