The Pertronix Ignitor Electronic Ignition Conversion Kit (MA-141) converts breaker points to electronic ignition by installing the original Ignitor module into Mazda and Mitsubishi 4-cylinder distributors. The original Ignitor is a solid-state, self-contained module that replaces breaker points for a maintenance-free ignition. The module mounts inside the original distributor, so the factory appearance is retained and no external ignition box is required.
This is a distributor-based kit. Fitment is determined by the distributor family listed below rather than by a single vehicle range, so confirm the kit against the distributor on the engine before ordering.

FAQ
What does the Pertronix MA-141 kit fit?
It fits Mazda and Mitsubishi 4-cylinder distributors. Fitment is based on the distributor, so match the kit to the distributor on the engine rather than to a single model year.
What ignition coil does it need?
Use a coil rated 3.0 ohms or higher on a 12V negative-ground system. Lower-resistance coils are not recommended with the original Ignitor.
Does it replace the points and condenser?
Yes. The module replaces the breaker points and condenser inside the distributor for a maintenance-free electronic ignition.
Is an external ignition box required?
No. The module fits inside the original distributor and needs no external box, so the engine keeps its factory look.
