Throttle Link Control Automatic Spark Timing System

The original Model A Ford did not include a mechanism for automatic spark ignition timing. The driver manually controlled spark timing from the steering column, similar to that of the Model T. This Nu-Rex system provides automatic crankshaft timing. It is designed for stock Model A engines with stock carburetor linkages or Model B engines used in Model A’s with stock Model A carburetor linkages *. Installation requires no permanent modification to the distributor, engine or timing procedures. The kit consists of the following:

• Angle Transfer Assembly- translating carburetor- throttle plate rotation to distributor point plate rotation for automatic spark timing.
• Replacement linkages to couple the distributor point plate to the carburetor and driver foot controls.
• A replacement spring to reduce friction of the distributor point plate within the distributor housing.
