New member, first post. Datsun 1000 Ute with A1000 engine. Bought a Hotspark 3HIT-4U1 electronic distributor upgrade off US ebay for under 100 delivered. 10 days later it turned up. Installed it today in the driveway in about and hour, only needed to lengthen the black wire to reach the coil. Started first go, re-timed with a timing light, all good. Only thing to watch is that the coil primary resisitance needs to be greater than 3 ohms or the unit can be damaged by excess current. Two of my spare coils checked under 3 ohms, one checked 3.9 ohms so used that one. Nothing cut so points can go back in if it stops working for any reason. Will report back if any issues.
