Have '67 Toronado which was optioned with Delcotronic CD ignition system. Getting motor to start has become intermittent. Some days yes, some days not. All accessible contacts have been cleaned and juice is hot from the key switch. Ground seems OK. Please share details if you have had this experience and what you did to fix it.
Do you know of any specialty shop qualified to test and repair/rebuild system?
If you have replaced or updated this same ignition system, what exact components did you use?
Thanks for your help.

Help with '67 Delcotronic CD ignition system
This is such a rare item, good luck finding support. Here the simple fix would
be just plop in a late 70s HEI, make sure there is no ballast resistor in the 12V
supply, and see if the advance is roughly the same. Bruce Roe

Thanks Bruce. Yes, may have to replace; I've been holding out trying to keep it original.
