PerTronix 1146A Ignitor for Delco 4 Cylinder Reviews
| 5 of 5 people found the following review helpful  Whoopie-- no points, By TV Guy "TV Guy" (Southfield MI) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: PerTronix 1146A Ignitor for Delco 4 Cylinder (Misc.) When I went to my local marine shop to get points for my Mercruiser Stern Drive was I ever in for a shock. The point and condenser set I used to pay $3 to $4 for was now $44. I decided it was time to make the switch. I have installed Pertronix systems in two of my classic cars without incident so I ordered the replacement for my boat. Installation was simple and quick. Since I take my boat to places where a stalled engine could be dangerous I didn't want anything unreliable and so far I have not had to swim home. Just be careful to check and re-set your timing. When I installed this device it radically changed my timing.Just in case something happens I kept the old system on board. 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful All absolutely astounding engine change! Smooth performance., Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: PerTronix 1146A Ignitor for Delco 4 Cylinder (Misc.) This electronic ignition does exactly as promised. I installed mine into a Four Winns , 4 cylinder marine, and noticed an immediate change in engine performance. First, it ignited with barely a crank of the starter. Then, I had to turn the idle screw so it didn't idle quite so fast! After running the boat out for about 2 hours I had to again adjust the idle down. Easy to install. The instructions were simple. Treat yourself to new coil at the same time. I matched my Petronix Ignitor to a Petronix FlameThower coil for my boat. Good combo. Lose the points and condenser. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful Noticeable performance increase, but need to Dremel your cap., By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: PerTronix 1146A Ignitor for Delco 4 Cylinder (Misc.) This system fully replaced the old-school points and condenser on my Mercruiser 120.The installation instructions were clear and concise: my 20 year old daughter was able to retrofit the ignition system, including Flamethrower coil, in 1 hour. And she has fingernails and long hair. The unexpected part was the need to grind out a 1/8" groove in the distributor cap for one of the new wires. I had a Dremel, and it took a minute or two to get it just right. Now YOU know. The engine fires right up and has no misfire at low speed like the original breaker point system. Top end has improved. I highly recommended this modification. |
