Re: [T3] Ignition on a F.I. 71


Go with the electronic points in the stock
distributor.  A distributorless system is very nice,
but pretty much overkill for a stock engine, and
getting the EFI to work will be a hassle.  You'll get
90% of the benefits of the DIS system by just dropping
in the much cheaper points replacement.

If you really wanted to do DIS, anyway, wander over to
the Megasquirt forums and take a look at that system. 
You'd be replacing the D-Jet ECU with the Megasquirt
ECU, which won't require the trigger points.  You'd
also unload the stock manifold pressure sensor in
favor of a modern solid-state pressure sensor.  You'd
then be free to use whatever ignition system you
liked, including the Compufire system.
