Sorry about that!  Pertronix Ignitor is a solid-state electronic 
ignition system that fits under the distributor cap and replaces the 
points.  Lumenition makes something about the same.  The Pertronix 
doesn't have any module outside the distributor that has to be 
mounted like the Lumenition.  Price is about $100 depending on the 
application.  Along with a good coil and plug wires there is an 
increase in both performance and fuel mileage.  Plugs last longer and 
the gap can be set wider for a better spark, etc.

I had one in my Jensen for 10 years, never had a problem.  If it does 
fail, you can easily re-install the points and be on your way.
