Using a Bosch 139 Module to run stock point ignition 120-130

That takes away the problem of ignition dwell but does not address the issue of
uneven point cam wear, shaft/bushing wear or advance mechanism problems.
In other words if the distributor is relatively new, it'll work great. Sort of
like a point-activated pertronix.
If the diaphragm on your distributor is in fact vacuum advance you may want to use it.
If it is vacuum retard, leave it disconnected.
