Anyone trigger a electronic IG module with points?

[AL8001 at aol.com]

Hi all, I have some old tractors/trucks and such that I would like to convert
to electronic IG.  Mostly because since they are limited use, the plugs tend
to carbon foul.

I would like to keep the points intact and just wire up the module and
realated parts. I could convert the dist to a pick up coil and such but would
rather not.

I'm thinking of a high ohm resistor from 12 V to the points.  Then tap the +
pickup coil input on the IG module to the points.  I would rather use somthing
common like a GM 4 pin/ Chrysler 5 pin/ or a Ford Duraspark.  The Ford 3 pin
dist mounted TFI looks good as well.


Thanks for the help.
