61 model 80 misfires

From the mouth of pertonix regarding the ignitor iii:

Code: 
I will work in delco distributor used in International's.
  But it will not work in either 6 or 4 cylinder regardless of the distributor.

Good thing the original crane xri's are still in stock.
 
Thanks for the followup Brian!

But...I wonder if the p-tron folks have actually tested one in a delco four cylinder distributor app since there is basically no demand for that application???

Since I have all variations of the delco stuff available that are fresh, I think I'll snake one and try it out to confirm this. In fact, I'm rebuilding a delco four-banger distributor today so I'll have a nice unit to try it in.

There May have been some change made in the electronics due to the "dwell" angle that the delco four cylinder uses as compared to both a v8 and many other engine applications. The dwell is actually calculated and "controlled" in the micro-processor as I understand it and is therefore not adjustable. The xri/p-iii is a kinda unique unit!
