Intermittent spark......

Glad you got it running. Sorry, wasn't around/on line recently or I would of tried to help.

The cars wiring should have a resistor wire built into it so that the voltage to the points will only be 6+volts while running and 12 at crank.

I've installed many pertronix and have only had problem with one. And it was a 6 cylinder Falcon.
