D-Jet Ignition Upgrade

Post by Bill K. »

I made the following ignition upgrades to my stock 1.7L D-Jet vacuum advance motor:

1. Pertronix 1847V Electronic Ignition
2. Bosch Blue Coil
3. Bosch W7DTC tri-electrode plugs

It was easy and made a noticable difference in idle and advance smoothness.

More info with tweaks for the Pertronix to fit the distributor - click here.
