"Lucas Rita- Electrical Duress, Jitter, Current Draw, Advance Curve The ignition module was subjected to electrical duress at an idle/starting speed. The coils used were the same stock Norton commando 6V units. The LR made consistently repeatable timed pulses until finally at 5vdc, the unit quit making sparks. It had NO visually observable voltage duress induced jitter.
The biggest potential flaw I have found with the LR is that the rotor supplied does not always seat reliably in the taper of the camshaft. Then as the LR rotor wobbles the gaps differ between the two rotor tips and the stationary pick-up. This causes the two cylinders to fire at different degrees. On mine, once both gaps were made the same by filing one rotor tip the firing was absolutely the same for both cylinders.
The LR “is” electrically the hungriest ignition unit tested. The Lucas Rita current draw changes very little as the RPM goes up, it does go down slightly due to decreased duty cycle.. The coil drive is off for a fixed 0.16 milliseconds. When the LR is cold, With the stock coils it draws a little over 3amps. As it warms up, at 14.3vdc it draws 2.7Amps reflecting the high coil drive duty cycle that is 99.2% at idle, and reduces to 98% at 5000rpm.
The production repeatability appears to be quite good as evidenced by the advance curves from my two spare units. Despite the added cost, these are by far my favorite."
Hat mich wieder mal erleuchtet. Meine TR7 hat nen deutlichen Versatz der Marke bei "Anblitzen". Mal schauen, was die Korrekturmaßnahme bringt
