Anyone with a parts coach that has a Pertronics ignition on the old Onan want to part with it? Any condition will do.

Jeff,

While it is worthwhile to ask, most of the Onans that got the Pertonix update stay in operation.

The update to the flywheel pickup is actually so easy that it is just not worth disassembling it to get the parts. The Onan version that replaces the points is simply not worth doing as it has no run-quality advantage.
