Hi,
Can anyone tell me if a Lucas gold sports coil is compatible with the aldon ignitor points replacement system. And.......does the tacho work with it.

Cheers
Mark

Just Fitted an ALDEN ignition unit into my distributor. using a Lucas Gold Sports coil.On My S4. Tacho works fine .However i wasn't sure if i needed to open the plug gaps up. from the standard points settings. So i adjusted them to 25 thou. To try it .seems to start and run fine :D

I ran my old S3 S/E with an Aldon Ignitor, Gold Lucas coil, and NGK's at 25 thou. It ran perfectly for a year before I sold it, and I speak to the new owner quite regularly, and he has had no trouble. Made no difference to the tacho, it still worked ok.
Just fitting another to my earlier S3 S/E and junking the Lumenition.
I would highly recommend the Ignitor. My son runs one on his MGB and he has not had an ounce of bother with it in 3 years and 18000 miles, he runs it daily.
Fit and forget,
