[QUOTE="Tango-Charlie, post: 122412, member: 13263"] Yes, after adding the Pertronix electronic module to my existing distributor I also upgraded the coil to the Pertronix Flame Thrower II coil that was recommended for the electronic distributor module. I fired it up with the original plug wires and it was missing bad. I checked the plug wires and found that they were copper core. I then either read the fine print in the instructions, FAQ's, or lots of online forums and it was always recommended to replace the original copper core spark plug wires because "Copper is never recommended for Electronic Ignition" and "Pertronix recommends the use suppressor core plug leads". I replaced them with the recommended wires and fired it up with no missing and has been a solid runner for several years. I'm so glad I did away with the points and went to the Pertronix electronic ignition. I even changed out the points in my IH 656 tractor to Pertronix and glad I did. [/QUOTE]
