@TheAbJGarage the only disadvantage I could see is maybe the mechanical distributor is easy to diagnose a failure. Due to seeing a moving part actually not working. Maybe.
I have a 2003 Honda LX the ignition switch turns the motor over but I'm not getting any power to the distributor to give me any fire to the plugs can I run a hot wire to the coil or points
from which model the electronic distributor is fitted ? thei can be interesting as parts source to convert small distributors as bosch from points to electronic, for the electronic module, you can use the GM HEI 4 pin module, there is much info on the internet for that use of the GM module.
That was very informative. But I still have one question. Many people say that electronic distributors are unreliable compared to the old point style distributor. People say that electronic distributors will fail without giving any warning. Is that true or just a myth?
@@TheAbJGarage points have exactly ONE more moving part than a hall type distributor, and when they're ready for adjustment or cleaning there will be a noticeable lag in throttle and starting time. With an electronic distributor, a resistor or capacitor pops, it will leave you sitting along side of the road. This has been the case for me on more than one occasion which is why I drive a 1972 Ford F350 as my daily driver. It is point fired,has a hand choke,a Holley 2 barrel carb,and NEVER fails t o start. It's got a 390 big block and still gets on average 16 mpg. AND has the added benefit of being probably the best sounding truck in my neighborhood. I can't leave the house without someone trying to buy it.
I'm assuming you're situated in America or maybe Australia. In Europe, specially Portugal which is where I'm from, 16mpg is an absurd amount of fuel. Double of that number is sort of the standard for normal driving nowadays, even then it is not an excellent figure. But we do have very small petrol cars and engines, over here a modern petrol car is somewhere between 1000cc-1500cc developing 100-150Hp. A 2500cc or more ,petrol truck would consume too much so over here almost all trucks use Diesel engines of 2000-3000cubic centimeters, so the bigger displacement of trucks compared to small commuter cars is compensated with the cheaper diesel fuel (cheaper then petrol over here), and less fuel starving diesel engine. The rare petrol truck is usually owned by former immigrants who brought them from America or Canada. Also petrol here has a prohibitive price, ~1.85€/liter which would equate to 7.67$(US)/gallon@@briana3467
On your thumbnail for the video, the types of distributors don’t match the distributors that are shown… the breaker point title is above the electronic distributor, and the electronic distributor title is above the breaker point distributor. You might want to fix that. 😮
Thank you clear discussion. Watching from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
Most welcome!! It is very good to have you on our channel!
Thank you for this lovely video
Glad you enjoyed it! So nice of you!
❤love the work dia sir cox it assists me in examz more about distributorlesss iginition system
good mechanical & electronic current distributor function #👍👍🇵🇰
Thank you kindly. I did not hear what disadvantages the electronic system has. There are some, particularly how electrical inputs can affect it.
Indeed no significant disadvantage of electronic ignition distributor is mentioned in our video.

This is lovely....i have enjoyed the session.
Glad you enjoyed it!

What engine do you have on your car? Is the 2003 Honda not using Ignition Coil Packs where there is no distributor?
This was great thanks mate
Glad you enjoyed it!
It is posible to use ignition coil with out igniter to electronic distributor?
Excellent overview - thanks very much
Glad you enjoyed it
What car is your contactless distributor from?
what supply in two wires sir? is it positive or negative?
Thank you very much for these video
Glad you like them!

Ok dear! Thank you very much! These are both from Toyota engines
Is it possible to replace the contact breaker when it is deffective?
you did not mention the disadvantage(s) of the electronic ignition distributor.. that is not a fair presentation if i may say so..
Does it save more FUEL in electronic type than on contact point??
It saves some! Good spark relates to good combustion and hence reduced consumption!
Is there a way to protect the sensitive electronic parts from weird voltages?
Awesome 👍
Thanks for the visit!
Looking for electronic ignition on fiat 124 any ideas
So how did it go? Did you modify?
Nice
What is the parts name of that electronic type??
That was very informative. But I still have one question. Many people say that electronic distributors are unreliable compared to the old point style distributor. People say that electronic distributors will fail without giving any warning. Is that true or just a myth?
Absolutely true.
comparatively they have less moving parts and therefore last longer... but when they stop they usually barely give warning ahead of time.

Thank you very much dear! Please stay tuned there are more videos to come.
Sorry,but not true on many areas.
Such as? You can't just criticize without facts
Nice
Thank you for the visit and the wonderful encouragement!
