MF 35 Electronic Ignition

Bob in Tennessee · Aug 26, 2019

I've had a early MF 35 with Z134 for twenty years and I want to convert to EI. The problem is when I rebuilt the machine back then I had to replace distributor and cam shaft because both had teeth broken. I cannot identify precisely my aftermarket distributor but it closely resembles a picture I found on the net of a Tisco 182852M91. Has anyone dealt with this situation and is there a solution short of a newer replacement distributor to achieve EI? Is there a company that deals with complete distibutors with EI installed? I cannot find on this site.
Thanks
Bob

If you go to the Pertronix website, you can view or download their ignition catalog.

I know they make some replacement distributors for industrial engines and such, I have no idea if they have one for your Continental, but it might be worth surfing over there and having a look.
