STEP 1: Find the static timing point
On the old distributor, note the position of the ignition wire to the number one cylinder.
Remove the distributor cap and turn the engine in its normal direction so that the rotor almost
points to the number one cylinder position. Now carefully turn the engine further until the
static timing point is reached. ( check the workshop-manual if you are not sure )
The engine is now at the static timing point, near the end of the compression stroke for the
number one cylinder.
STEP 2: Out with the old, in with the new
You may wish to verify that the correct advance curve has been selected in your 'C.C.T-i':
using a 5mm Allen wrench remove the hexagonal plug in the bottom face of the housing.
Inside the hole you'll find a 16 position rotary switch, marked '0' to 'F' .
Check the technical data below for the proper setting. Select the curve of your choice ; reinsert the plug and tighten securely. Now remove the spark plug wires and coil wire from the
old distributor-cap and remove the old cap. Disconnect the points wire from the coil. Unscrew
the hold down nut at the base of the distributor and pull the old unit out.
Now remove the distributor-cap from the 'C.C.T-i' and carefully insert the 'C.C.T-i' in the
hole, turning the rotor until the drive gears mate and the unit falls into place. Rotate the
housing of the 'C.C.T-i' so that the cables and vacuum-tube come out conveniently.
If necessary, the drive gear can be repositioned on the shaft to accommodate a different
rotational position. To do this, remove the 'C.C.T-i' and carefully remove the retaining spring
from the drive gear, then use a small punch to tap out the pin and re-assemble at an angle
more suitable to your needs.

STEP 3: Static timing the 'C.C.T.-i'
Connect the red wire to the BAT-terminal of the coil, according to the schematic. For now, do
NOT connect the black wire. Turn the ignition on.
Slowly turn the housing of the 'C.C.T-i' in a counter-clockwise direction, until the green LED
just lights up. The LED shines through one of the four holes in the aluminium disc below the
rotor. While turning, also press the rotor in a counter-clockwise direction, to remove any free
play in the drive gear. Finally, tighten the 'C.C.T-i' securely, as it is also the electrical ground
of the 'C.C.T-i'.
Turn off the ignition.
STEP 4: Finish the wiring
Connect the black wire to the RUP-terminal of the coil, according to the schematic.
Connect the spark plug leads in the proper sequence to the cap, starting with the wire for the
number one cylinder at the position pointed to by the rotor of the 'C.C.T-i'.
Also connect the high voltage wire from the coil to the center position of the cap. Attach the
cap to the distributor. Keep the red and black wire well away from the high voltage leads and
away from moving parts, using tie-wraps or other suitable means.
STEP 5: Start and test drive
You can now start your engine. If you have worked accurately, your ignition should be
adjusted well enough for a test drive. To achieve ultimate accuracy a fine adjustment using a
stroboscope should be performed. ( check the dynamic timing data in the workshop manual )
Enjoy your C.C.T-i ignition!

TIPS
·
Do NOT disconnect ANY electric wire, when the engine is running. This is bad practice
when using high-tech electronic systems, such as the C.C.T-i ignition.
·
Sparks are much stronger with a C.C.T-i ignition : use good quality sparkplug leads, and a
good coil. The primary resistance should not be lower then 1 ohm.
·
Resistor-core silicone ignition-leads are the better choice!
·
Mistrust old coils : they all look alike, but you can't see if they have been overheated
many times! Buy a new one, now you know that this will not be overheated anymore...
·
Replace the cap and rotor every 30.000 km. Here is ordering info :
Bosch cap : 1.235.522.050 / 1.235.522.058 / 1.235.522.059 / 1.235.522.145
Bosch rotor : 1.234.332.024
