It's time to tune the Sprite. Being very lazy (the real reason I never bother to put the top up), I am thinking about replacing the points with an electronic ignition. I know that there are several t

Hmmm, nobody installs an electronic ignition in order to compensate for worn bushings, do they? Do you have the advance curve for the 25D distributor for the 69 MGB engine to hand? CR `69 B
