I fitted a pazon system on my mk3 as I read that it would spark at a lower voltage than the fitted boyer while using the electric start . Seemed a good idea. No spark ! Didn't seem as if the pickup pins on the rotor were in far enough to reach the coils on the stator plate. Was informed by pazon they had to produce a rotor with longer pins to address this problem. Not free ? Slight improvement but according to the measurements requd still 3 to4 mm short ! Got back in touch and was told to make a spacer to bring the rotor out farther. Tapered fit !! Had to make up carefully made shims using a variety of bits of an old set of feeler gauges so I could get it right . Works now but not impressed to say the least !! Roy.
