## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Perfect replacement solution for that ubiquitous Bosch 009 'flat spot'
  

*by K***I on Reviewed in the United States on 6 June 2023*

This PERTRONIX FlameThrower SVDA distributor is what every 'street VW beetle' should have, in order to do away with the bothersome 009 mechanical advance distributor 'flat spot'. The SVDA was intended to be the perfect match for a stock VW bug engine and it certainly works best, in my opinion (and that of so many others). The PERTRONIX FlameThrower SVDA has an electronic igniter module in it that perfectly replaces the old OEM (original) points/condenser assembly and in my experience with it, it performs flawlessly. The enclosed instructions are clear, concise and well illustrated, so no fumbling around getting it installed. Even a 'high-grade' chimpanzee could probably do it! 009 distributors are most at home in high-performance VW engines, Porsches and race modified cars. The Pertronix FlameThrower SVDA is the setup of choice for a stock or only slightly modified bug, intended for use on the streets and roads.

    Should have done this sooner.
  

*by C***E on Reviewed in the United States on 20 July 2023*

Super easy installation, easy timing adjustment and car runs better than it ever has. Should have done this much sooner.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A great replacement distributor for your VW
  

*by M***O on Reviewed in the United States on 20 May 2023*

Easy to install and won't fail you. Other no name distributors that I've tried failed with a few months. I use this distributor in my 1969 Beetle, 69 Gia and 76 Transporter with years of trouble free performance..
