Wish I would have seen you before we pulled out of that gas station. We had just come off the mountain from swimming and was adjusting the paddle boards on two separate cars. Of course I didn’t know that was you at the time until I posted...

I think this was very old. was in the dizzy that was in the 1976 fj55. It was probably a early 2000s build. Very much of the period with vintage spector off road stuff and msd stuff under the hood and a chrome front bumper. Kinda crazy sombody...
Fwiw, that was very true for the older Pertronix kits, 1661, 1662, etc. The new (10+ years ago) Pertronix II kits eliminated that issue to my knowledge, I don't know that I've heard of a key-on burnout on the newer ones. I'd love to hear if...
