electronic ignition

Post by hfcuda »

i installed a later model electronic ignition on my 340 71 barracuda. my only problem is the coil is heating up, resulting to a hard starting car. when you get an answer can you e-mail me, i dont want to post a duplicate title.
thanks,

Had a similar problem on a pro-street car. Simple solution is to mount the coil on the inside of the firewall. Keeps it away from the heat and within easy reach of the distributor.
