IGNITION SYSTEMS

Altronic I Ignition System <br />for 1- to 6-Cylinder Engines

The Altronic I capacitor discharge electronic ignition consists of a permanent magnet alternator unit, one or more remote mounted pickups sensing crankshaft referenced timing magnets, and an ignition coil for each spark plug. The system alternator provides the power for the electronic box mounted to it.

• Eliminates magneto, breaker points and impulse coupling
• Maintenance-free, long term
• Timing set only once, then remains constant
