Came with a box of goodies in a parts boat i purchased. Wanting to know if i can use it to replace the points distributor on my volvo pents 305 v8, im assuming i need a hotter coil and igniton module
This is the extent of what i have. I believe it was from a boat that was either storm or winter damaged then parted out after a season or so. Still looks new. None of the parts in this box go ttogether. From Bennett trim tab motor to single bbl carb to this, just random parts.
Points are a pita compared to solid-state. Keep an ignition module and a coil in your glove box, you're covered. No need for feeler gauges, fingernail file, 100 dollar bill or dwelll. Set your timing and forget it. Hotter spark, less maintaince.
if this isn't the hei or marine equivalent ( maybe this is thunder bolt?) And requires the pricey little computer I'm gonna toss it on eBay or a hard sale. Ill replace my points before spending 300 on a dizzy, i was only going to upgrade if i only needed a few simple parts.
