Does my Classic Car Run Better with a 123 Ignition Electronic Ignition System? 

Yes that can happen but it was the servo leaking

Welcome back!

Seems to be a good upgrade on most classics. Love the Morris Minor btw!

Fun upgrade! Hope it goes well

Glad you liked it!

It is!

I’ll do a fuel consumption test a bit later when I drive it to work again.

Glad to hear it’s running better

Not sure if it is actually

The WD installed the basic version where you use a screwdriver to set curve

It’s fun to try new things though

No, it should keep its programming forever according to the manufacturer

Thanks Jeff! I plan to use the SNG Barratt system on my XJ-S

@@LivingWithAClassic yes, Harry of Harry's Garage went with that SNG uggrade. My issue is I don't have a ECU. By the time I sent out my injectors for service and purchase a ECU from AJ6 engineering, I'm almost at the cost of Mobek. AJ6 Engineering does have larger throttle bodies for our V12's. That looks interesting!!

True if I don’t have anything I’d go with the Mobek system

Yes you can. Just switch of the ignition, turn on the ignition, switch curves and then start your engine.

@@LivingWithAClassic Thanks for the reply. Is possible to switch curves while driving?

It’s taken from the information about the stock distributor. I get about 34 degrees at 3600 with the vacuum advance

@@LivingWithAClassic yes but I don’t use the vacuum advance at the moment because that is important for economy at high RPM and strong vacuum (throttle closed, like downshift) now you run it lean (slow burning) and need more time to burn the fuel completely. The MK2 with the 3.8 engine has 19 (distributor !!! ) degrees meening 38 crank degrees. Actually it would even be 42 because 4 degrees static but during acceleration timing tests above 38 the time gain diminished and so I stayed on the safe side away from knocking. Later I was on a Dyno having 175 real HP on the rear wheel and after my disappointment (shouldn’t it be 220?) the Tuner told me yes measured at the Flywheel it would be but 175 on the wheel is the best he had seen on such an engine. Me, happy 🤩

Glad you liked it!
