REPAIR

ELECTRONIC IGNITION - V8i

A Lucas 35DLM8 distributor is employed. This has a
conventional vacuum advance unit and centrifugal
automatic advance mechanism.

A pick-up module, in conjunction with a rotating timing
reluctor inside distributor body, generates timing
signals. These are applied to an electronic ignition
amplifier module mounted on side of distributor body.

NOTE: Pick-up air gap is factory set. Do
not adjust gap unless pick-up is being
changed or base plate has been moved.

Use a non-ferrous feeler gauge to set air gap.

Remove

1. Disconnect battery negative lead.

4. Mark distributor body and centre line of rotor

arm.

refitting in exact original position, but if
engine is turned while distributor is

removed, complete ignition timing procedure
must be followed.

6. Release distributor clamp.
7. Raise distributor, disconnect multiplug from

amplifier unit.
