So, when getting my sons 74 Mini on the road I thought I'd inmprove the reliability for him by ditching the points and condenser and fit an electronic kit. Simples.

Less than a year later and he breaks down (while I am working away naturally...). Fault: Electronic ignition failure. Garage converted it back to points and condenser.

Over the last two years I have bought six conversion kits from various sources for some of my cars and some customers. 4 out of the six have failed. They seem to be totally unreliable and of no benefit whatsoever.

I cannot be that unlucky can I?

Anyone else find them to be rubbish?
