123/MINI-R-V-pos

123/MINI-R-V-pos distributor for the old 'pre-A-plus' Mini and Morris Minor

The 123/MINI-R-V-pos is designed with the Mini enthusiast in mind. It is available for the old 'pre-A-plus' Mini and Morris Minor.

Features of the 123/MINI-R-V-pos electronic ignition

The unit is laid out in such a way, that static timing can be done on TDC, by means of the built-in LED. The 16 curves are nicely divided over the spectrum, so that the unit lends itself perfectly for tuning.

The unit also offers:
- Vacuum advance
- Automatic dwell
- Automatic power-cut after 1 second
- Gear shift retard

Please note about the 123/MINI-R-V-pos 123ignition

Often mistakes are made in ordering the right 123ignition for the Mini. Please check carefully whether you'll need a pre-plus version or an A-plus version. In combination with an A-plus engine please order: 123/MINI-R-V-A+. The pre-plus engines were made until circa 1980.

Please read the installation manual carefully. It contains more information about motor- and distributor numbers, static timing and the advance-curves, the specifications of the 123ignition and a step-by-step description of the installation procedure. The installation manual also offers a comprehensive list, that links a curve-setting to a particular engine.

Coil and spark plugs

Although used coils all look alike, they should be viewed with suspicion since one cannot tell from the outside whether, and how often they were exposed to overheating in the past. Installing the 123ignition system will ensure that the coil will never be overheated again in future. We recommend the 123 Blue Coil.

Perhaps you'll also need new spark plugs? At 123ignitionshop we recently added the spark plugs most commonly used in combination with the 123ignitions we offer. See: the spark plugs list.
