The Hot-Spark electronic ignition conversion kit replaces breaker points and condenser in the distributor to provide rock-solid reliability. With the Hot-Spark electronic ignition, dwell and timing are always spot-on accurate.

No matter how strong your engine is, you won't get the most out of it without a good spark. The stock Volkswagen ignition system used technology that dates back almost a century - to the Kettering system, which was introduced in the 1910 Cadillac. Even though you can adjust breaker points for near-electronic ignition performance, they will burn and wear within a few thousand miles, long before the recommended replacement interval. With points, the timing will drift; power and fuel economy will suffer.

The Hot-Spark electronic ignition conversion kit delivers a strong spark every time and is maintenance-free. You'll notice quicker starts, more top end power and a little gas mileage boost. It's as easy to install as points and condenser!

Note: Some BMW 2002 models have a distributor with left-hand pivot pin points. Hot-Spark ignition kits will fit only distributors with right-hand pivot pin points, not distributors with left-hand pivot pin points. Please compare the points in your car's distributor with the points in the above photo before ordering. Bosch distributors 0 231 180 008 and 0 231 115 045 have left-hand pivot pin points - Hot-Spark ignition kits won't fit them.

Vehicles with centrifugal-advance-only Bosch four-cylinder distributor - either BOS4C1 or BOS4V1. The BOS4C1 kit is a bit simpler to install than the BOS4V1 kit.
