tim42163 - Would an electronic ignition conversion also help those engines?
We're quickly getting past my experience.  I would say yes, electronic is always better than points, but...  The "but" is, as I understand it the timing needs to be set slightly differently than on gasoline. I don't know if it is distributor timing, spark advance, or just what.  I just remember being told there was an ignition mod usually needed.

I can't address how it was different because I never got into that aspect of it. If it got to that point I was out of Band-Aids and we sent the patient off to a mechanic.  I remember being told this is why when converting a computerized engine you have to put in a box that converts what is really happening to what the computer wants to see.
