Has anyone any knowledge/history of using a CU Aircooled 2.0 points distibutor SVDA 034 on a 1.9/2.1 wbx instead of the electronic amplified system?.
Cheers chaps.

Re: Just wondering
why would you want to?
DG are not so hard to find second hand but DJ are hens teeth
Im pretty sure you could fit a twin vac can to a DG dizzy and use it on a DJ
of course lots of people running a DJ withit the Digijet injection and on a DG carb and dizzy.

Yup, best avoided. Having to check/reset points (even with a dwell gauge) is a job that gets tedious.

Re: Just wondering
On a long trip overseas I take a spare amplifier, a spare dizzy and a spare coil.
I take a starter motor and an alternator too!
I take most spares from the Digijet system which is hard to fault find at the side of the road.
all but the starter and alt fit in a plastic toolbox which gets shifted into the drivers footwell when I camp
yes you can bet the bit that failed won't be what I have but it makes me feel better.

Re: Just wondering
CU engines always had DVDA electronic distributors so assume you mean the replacement Powerspark type SVDA distributors which are a generic type of distributor. If you want that route then the electronic ignition version would be better. I carry one as a spare already timed up with a clamping bracket attached.
