Tune-Up - 5 CYL: Distributor

All models are equipped with an electronic, breakerless ignition system. All California models and Federal Turbo models have an idle stabilizer unit, which adjusts ignition timing to maintain a constant idle speed. Some models without idle stabilizers may be equipped with an impedance transformer (Gray in color) mounted in the location of the idle stabilizer.

The Quattro is equipped with the Hartig Electronic Ignition System which controls both the ignition system and the oxygen sensor system. Centrifugal and mechanical advance mechanisms are not used.
