Replaces Points and Condenser - Never Adjust Points or Timing Again!
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 contact breaker 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
Cleaner engine oil due to less unburned fuel
Longer interval between oil changes
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
Saves precious ($$$) gasoline/natural gas/propane, etc.
Coil with 1.5 Ohms or more internal, primary resistance required. Stock Bosch coil or HS15HEC high-energy coil OK.

Bosch 6-cylinder distributors with right-hand one-piece points (Bosch part no. 1 237 013 112) - 3BOS6U1
Virtually all air-cooled, 4-cylinder VW distributors have right-hand points. Some Porsche, Mercedes and Volvo-Penta distributors have left-hand points; some have right-hand points. Please compare the points in your Bosch distributor to the photo of points below:
Left-hand (at left) and Right-hand Pivot Pin, One-piece Contact Breaker Points
Note: Some Porsche 911 cars have a distributor with left-hand pivot pin points. The 3BOS6U1 will fit only distributors with right-hand pivot pin points. If your Bosch 6-cylinder distributor has left-hand pivot pin points, order the 3BOS6U1L. Please compare the points in your 911's distributor with the points in the above photo before ordering and attach a memo to your PayPal payment, specifying whether your 911 distributor has left-hand (3BOS6U1L) or right-hand (3BOS6U1) points.
Determine whether your distributor has single-piece points, as older (pre-1968 or so) Bosch distributors typically have two-piece points. If it has two-piece points, a pivot pin will remain, standing up from the breaker plate, after you remove the points. The 3BOS4C2 ignition kit fits older, 4-cylinder Bosch non-vacuum distributors with 2-piece points (also available in a 6-cylinder version, the 3BOS6C2).
