Well, I dunno, A spark is a spark is a spark which torches 'er all off. Doesn't matter where the ignition comes from either; a feller could use a wooden match if he could get 'er in there at the proper time. :>) A hotter spark doesn't have a thing to do with how the fuel burns, does not increase power, doesn’t make the fuel burn cleaner nor hotter; actually, electronic ignition doesn't do a darned thing except eliminate the mechanical wear at the points. I figured it up back in the seventies and at that time it would have taken 78 sets of points to pay for the electronic ignition changeover kit ('course they were new and kinda spendy back then too). Don't know what it would be now, but still somewhat substantial, I would guess. Allan
