Many electronic systems are very sensitive to battery voltage, which must be 12
or more. Even a slightly run down battery will affect the spark ignition. You
also have to have the right coils to block RF interference.

No, I'm not being nice.I am currently running electronic ignition in the
Scirocco,Not by choice. It is temporary untill I get the edis installed.Points
can be trashed and they will still get you home unlike the electronic that will
leave you on the side of the road.That has happened twice so I carry a set of
points and condenser as a back up.

Took the Spyder out for a cruise around the neighborhood this afternoon to look
at the trees, which are gorgeous right now in Nacogdoches. A block from the
house and it shut down. No fire. Yep, Beck builds these things from all new
parts, including the Chinese 009 and electronic ignition. 8800 km and the
thing gives up.
Towed it home, put in a rebuilt German 009 with points and condensor and it
cranks right up. This was the only car that I had with anything other
than a German distributor and points. I have driven VWs for hundreds of
thousands of miles and the only distributor failure that I have ever had was
one set of broken points on a 71 super beetle that only had about 10,000 miles
on it at the time. Will never own another electronic ignition equipped VW.
That's my rant for the day.
