Guys - Will buying this solve my starting problems? will having electronic ignition alleviate the need to work on timing?

Set it and forget it.

I installed it on my 78 wing 6 years ago and haven't needed to touch it again.

Electronic Ignition for CA77 Dream - Can't find ORDER link!

Post by David Sanborn » Tue Jul 22, 2014 3:19 pm

What's up with the Electronic Ignition for CA77 Dream modules? If they're discontinued it would be prudent to state as such, or at least give an ETA when more might be available. On a similar note, would you be willing to endorse another system, like either:
http://www.probe-eng.com/
OR
http://www.charlies-place.com/

As either of these looks worthwhile, but I'm sure I'll find that one is very preferred ...

Just purchased the probe ignition and will try and mount it to the old ca-77 dream this weekend. You can buy direct from their web site. I'll let you know how it does.

Finally got the ignition mounted. Took about three hours to mount everthing and run all the wires. I mounted the module to top of the frame under the seat. The unit came with 12 pages of instructions and you must wire it up per these instructions or take the chance of frying the electronics. After install and setting the timing it ran very nice and the motor would idle down to about 800 RPM without any problem. I still haven't taken it out on the road. Should have a test ride somtime this week.

AWESOME. Can't wait to hear your thoughts. Meanwhile, I'm documenting my install here: http://www.davesanborn.blogspot.com/

I don't see where to order the kits. I have 67 dream 305. How much are they and how do I place an order?
