Ignition
Back to Top

*Computerised Ignition, Rugger state-of-the-art computer continually 
tunes the ignition system to compensate for changes in atmospheric conditions, 
plug gap, and fuel mixture in each cylinder (for each firing cycle) and delivers 
increased power (7%), fuel economy (up to 16.7%) and improved throttle 
response. Tune up interval and spark plug life is increased to 40,000 miles. 
Switches to anti-theft "scrambled" mode, or to original ignition system. 
Easy installation. Complete with delux spark plug wire set, energy coil, 
and detailed instructions. One year warranty.
120-day money-back guarantee

Electronic Ignition Kit: Built by the largest US manufacturer of after-market ignition systems. Factory-preset dwell eliminates the need to gap and replace points forever. 100% solid-state. No permanent distributor modifications. Extremely accurate optical pickup. Virtually immune to moisture, vibration, temperature extremes, salt spray, ice, or humid atmospheres. Triggers with only 3.0 volts. 35% increase in spark delivered. Faster starting, cleaner running and better performance at all speeds. Works on distributors with worn bushings and tired breaker plates. Complete with detailed instructions. State 4 or 6 cylinder. 
Lifetime GuaranteeJEC672
  
Energy Coil: Unique coil senses electric "echo" at plugs. Intensifies spark during peak load. Diminishes spark as demand falls. Minimizes engine knock. Maximizes performance and reliability. Very fast cold starts.
