Coil?
I'm thinking about changing the ignition coil in my '75 CJ5 258. It appears
to be an original. Any recommendations? A while back Mike R. said he'd
installed an Accel Super Coil in his Jeep. If I went with that particular
model I wouldn't have a good mounting bracket or place for it unless it
comes with a replacement bracket of it's own. There is a model that appears
to be a similar size and shape both in an Accel and MSD make which should
fit my mounting bracket. Please send recommendations either pro's or con's
of units.
Thanks Always,
Paul

Re: Coil?
Thanks Mike,
So this bracket that comes with it mounts to that same spot as the original
correct? Also, I can't remember what you'd mentioned in regards to the
dist. cap and wire set? I have NAPA premium cap, rotor, and wires. These
should be ok for the voltage increase right?
Thanks,
Paul

Re: Coil?
Yes, the accel cap and wires were crap. I am running Mopar.
The coil bracket just fits in the same holes as the stock one.
