Its a transistor assisted ignition, but I don't know whether its points or reluctor. A couple turned up in a box of auto spares I aquired and it'd be handy to figure out how to test them..

As with all components manufactured by Lucas, the God of Darkness, it's purpose is to function for a non-specified length of time and then fail at the most troublesome moment.

Can't remember what it was I had that was Italian - it fell to bits even quicker than the CZ250! Actually - on reflection, nothing is quite as bad as Wipac!
