Subject:      Compu fire Question
Content-Type: multipart/alternative;

Hello Everyone,
Has anyone installed the compu-fire electronic ignition on a vacuum advanced distributor?  The one that they sent me does not seem to want to install right.  I was sent the 21100 module and it is supposed to be the 21101.  When I called SoCal Imports they, said that it was the right one and the only difference is that there was a spacer added that you drop on the shaft of the distributor.  With or without the spacer, the rotor will not lock down hence, it don't work!  Now I am back to the problem that I was trying to fix by getting the Compu-fire, my points!  I'm trying to set them again, but seem to not be able to get the right gap.  Does anyone know a ball park figure for a gap that I should be setting it to.  It was at .483 and it started but it wasn't right. I tried to reset it and now I can't get it to even fire.  Help!
Thanks everyone,

Eggz
