In truth, the Lumenition Performance Optronic electronic ignition isn’t a new product. It has been around for quite a few years now. So much so, that younger classic car enthusiasts may not be aware of it nor the many advantages it offers a classic car driver.
It is suitable for all engines with a mechanical distributor that uses a single ignition coil – so pretty universal amongst classics. It is especially suited to performance engines up to 12 cylinders and race or rally vehicles. It is recommended for all engines sizes capable of up to a maximum of 8,000 rpm.
The kit replaces the antiquated contact breaker and condenser with Optronic ignition. It needs no maintenance and has no parts to wear out – or breakdown. A vital safety feature on motorways with All Lane Running!
The CEK150 kit from Burton combines the reliability of the Lumenition Optronic ignition system with the Lumenition constant energy coil, which gives a fully saturated spark far higher up the engine rev range than possible with a standard coil. The high output, constant energy ignition coil is electronically matched to a power module which controls the coil current giving: optimum performance across the speed and voltage range and ensures maximum coil spark energy at all times. The control unit also provides a variable dwell angle, to prevent low speed coil overheating and an automatic switch off to prevent coil damage if the ignition is left on.
In addition to eliminating fragile contact breakers or capacitors the CEK150 Kit also offers:
Easier starting and higher engine revving
Faster, smoother acceleration
Reduced exhaust emissions
Improved fuel economy
Order as part number CEK150 retail at £348.95 inc. VAT.
This kit contains a power module, coil and optronic eye. In order to fit the eye to the distributor, a dedicated distributor fitting kit for the particular make and model must also be purchased.
