Had Pertronix conversion kit on my car for several years...had several coils go out. Switched to mopar elect ignition for last few years..no problems! Just chance or what? i dont know..but it has me thinking that the petronix was possible killing coils maybe?



What brand of coil? How much voltage did you have at the coils? Did you bypass the ballast resistor?

The ignitor I, II, and III require a certain voltage at the coil. I'll admit I burned up a Pertronix coil, but it was my fault for not doing a loaded voltage test.
