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 Bosch ignition system used technology that dates back 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!
Advantages of the Hot-Spark electronic ignition conversion kit:
Replaces points and condenser with solid-state electronics
Set it and forget it - Never adjust points and timing again!
Zero maintenance
Delivers far more voltage to the spark plugs than points-based points
Reliable Hall-effect technology
Never gets out of adjustment
Rock-steady reliability
Dwell and timing are always spot-on accurate
Increased gas mileage, fuel economy
Quick starting
Smooth idling
Cleaner emissions
Longer spark plug life
Longer engine life

Easy to install - If you can install points, you can install the Hot-Spark electronic ignition conversion
No points to wear, burn, pit or corrode
No condenser needed
Absolutely no points float - zero - even at redline RPM and beyond!
Never worry about drifting dwell or timing again
No rubbing parts - nothing to wear out!
Fits completely under the distributor cap
Stealth modification - maintains stock appearance
Includes everything you need, no external ignition box required.
Works with stock distributor and coil
Encased in high-temp thermoplastic - protected from the elements and oil, grease, dirt, water, etc.
Never bother with points or condenser again!
The best investment you'll ever make for your vehicle

Three-year replacement warranty
Virtually all 4-cylinder, air-cooled VW/Porsche
distributors have right-hand points. Early Bosch distributors (generally
pre-1968 or so) have 2-piece points. Some BMW, Porsche and Mercedes distributors
have left-hand points; some have right-hand points.
Determine whether your Bosch distributor has single-piece points, as early (pre-1968 or so) Bosch distributors typically have 2-piece points. If it has 2-piece points, a brass pivot pin will remain, standing up from the breaker plate, after you remove the points.
Sorry, we don't have ignition kits to fit early Bosch/VW distributors with the large distributor cap.

High secondary resistance for more voltage at the plugs Ideal for Use with Hot-Spark 4-cyl Electronic Ignition Conversion Kits with red 3-series ignition module |
Heavy-duty, high-energy coil with extra turns of copper wire in the
secondary windings for as much as 45,000 volts to the spark plugs - more turns
of copper wire than other standard-sized canister coils.
Application:
Ideal for 4-cylinder distributors. Provides more primary resistance to protect from
overheating due to high-voltage or high-temperature environments.
Designed specifically to produce maximum spark
when used
with Hot-Spark red electronic ignition conversion kits
(red ignition module). Also excellent for points-based
distributors - high primary resistance helps reduce points burning, pitting.
Epoxy-filled
canister (not oil-filled) to withstand high-vibration
environments
Rugged, mirror-polished case -
won't chip or peel like chrome-plated coil canisters.
Standard 56mm (2.2 in.) coil
diameter - fits stock coil clamps.
