Do you still have the points? 140-160 1972

Do you still have the points? Try re-installing them.

I had trouble with both Pertronix and Hot Spark electronic ignitions after a few years. I went back to points because they don't leave you stranded.

I was thinking of trying Crane ignition which uses light pulses and shouldn't give problems. But I may be wrong. See if their website mentions anything.
