The 123/VW-R-V distributor can be used in all type '1', '2' and '3' VW cars with vacuum advance

The 123/VW-R-V is developed in co-operation with VW Experts. In addition to the Beetle, Karmann Ghia and Buggy without vacuum advance, it can also be installed in the Porsche 356 and 912 models.

Features of the 123/VW-R-V electronic ignition

With a switch you can easily choose the advance-curve that is specified for your specific engine. The unit offers a built-in LED for easy static timing and several different advance-curves.

It also offers:
- Automatic dwell
- Automatic power-cut after 1 second

Please note the following about the 123/VW-R-V 123ignition

When you'll need a 123ignition without vacuum advance, please order a 123/VW-R.

Please read the installation manual carefully. It contains the specifications of the 123-ignition system, as well as a step-by-step description of the installation procedure. The installation instructions also contain a cross-reference between the original Bosch number and the setting of the 123VW-R, as well as a list which links VW engine numbers to the required setting of the 123ignition.

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.

Perfect product

Instaleren is een eitje. Kever start nu veel beter en loopt mooi gelijkmatig. Optrekken gaat nu in 1 stuk door zonder horten en stoten. Koud start is ook sneller en motor schudt minder bij stationair toerental. Dikke pluim!!!!

T1 1303 VW Karmann Cabrio 1973

Building the 123ignition in my T1 was simple.
It works much better and none problems.
The service was fast with sending and it arrives completely and it was in a good package.

Great Work!

Works brilliant. Cold start is stunningly good, like in a modern car. Very reliable. Engine runs very smoothly!

Ontsteking en service zijn prima.

Door een vergissing kreeg ik de verkeerde ontsteking toegestuurd. Dit werd met één telefoontje prima en naar tevredenheid opgelost.
Het inbouwen was een fluitje van een cent. De Porsche 912 uit 1969 loopt er veel beter door. Ook op Euro 95 benziene.
