coralee Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Which one do I want for a 1973 188hp Mercruiser? Looks like there is Pertronix and Hot spark at least to choose from. Motor seems to run good but starts a bit tough and stalls when putting in gear especially when still cold. Seems like you need to start the motor about 5 or 10 times before it wants to go.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1mainiac Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I just bought a Pertronix setup for mine I got the complete Billet Distributor and coil. Hope to have it in this weekend so can give you a report after I run it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
