OUR ONLINE CHECKOUT is CLOSED and we are NOT accepting any NEW orders at this time.

We are still fulfilling and shipping previously submitted and/or delayed order requests (as product availability allows) UNTIL NOVEMBER 15th 2022.

But after November 15th, all still pending backordered unshipped items will be automatically CANCELLED **(except for any special ordered drop-shipped or made/machined-to-order items).

Our ability to respond to emails is greatly hampered by being under-staffed during this downsize transition time. But we continue to endeavor to answer email inquiries as best we can. And we will continue responding to emails through until early March 2023 because we are wholly committed to resolving any other issues that may arise from previous sales. It is still UNCERTAIN, but we may re-open a substantially downsized version of our store again in the Spring of 2023.

We sincerely appreciate your patience, understanding during this period of restructuring and/or closing. And a huge thank you to all of you whose support and loyalty we have been the beneficiary of over the 23 years that we have worked diligently to support the information and parts needs of the aircooled VW community!

Pertronix 3 (Flamethrower III) Points Replacement Kit, Fits SVDAs and Vac Advance Distributors, 009/050 Distributors, AND 1968-73 Type 3s, 71847V

Pertronix 3 (Flamethrower III) Points Replacement Kit, Fits SVDAs and Vac Advance Distributors, 009/050 Distributors, AND 1968-73 Type 3s, 71847V
 
Pertronix 3 (Flamethrower III) Points Replacement Kit, Fits SVDAs and Vac Advance Distributors, 009/050 Distributors, AND 1968-73 Type 3s, 71847V features a variable dwell, and a new digital rev limiter and circuit protection too! Pertronix top of the line!

Besides updating your 50yo car to modern technology, you'll get adaptive dwell for top spark energy at all RPMs! You will also have an adjustable rev limit!

Do you really want 50's technology (points and condenser) keeping you running? Runs as well as a points and condenser system, but without the spark degradation or timing changes that are common with points! Fits VW Bug SVDAs and Vacuum advance distributors. Replace your archaic points with a magnetically triggered ignition. You'll never adjust points again once it's installed, and it's not affected by dirt, oil, moisture or grease. Very easy to install.

If you are wondering, the Pertronix III module has several advantages over the original Pertronix AND the Pertronix II. First, the Pertronix III module changes dwell as needed. Simply use a low impedance coil (not included)! The Pertronix III is designed for that, and has no problem! It also senses when the key is on but the engine is not running, which used to burn out the original Pertronix! The Pertronix III is immune to this sort of abuse!

These features are worth the additional money over the original Pertronix module!

The Pertronix III has all this, AND an adjustable RPM limit. This feature is not present in the Pertronix II module.
