Jacobs Ignitions
 
Do the Jacobs Ignition systems control the advance curve? If so how and if not what does? Also Any comments on the system good AND bad:confused: :confused: :confused: Does anyone have any contacts on retailers who sell them?:rolleyes:

The distributor still controls the advance with the jacobs ignition. I have been using them for years with Mallory Dist. and have been very happy with them. Your best bet is to get it directly from them I believe they are in Texas and will sell to you over the phone. They do exactly what they claim.

A few years back I purchased two complete systems. I was impressed with their concept and thought they would be the ticket. After swapping out two modules that failed I made them refund my money....just didn't work out. During the lst failure the motor was breaking up mid range and up and Jacobs maintained it couldn't be their module. I went back to stock system and motor was again normal. They then agreed to replace module but wanted to charge me a prorate. I supposedly had a "lifetime" warranty originally. That was when I decided I didn't need their systems any longer.

The system I had on the mustang failed me once. That's too many times. However, the jacobs nitrous mastermind is a beautiful thing!
