John - Many thks for referring me to Bob Watson. I'll give him/them a ring sometime but I am not in any great hurry as I have one in on loan at present. Many thks for replying.
As a matter of interest to others it does appear from various comments and a bit of research that its not worth trying to run the early 2 litre engines on the original battery driven coil set up. Too much plug wetting and general misbehaviour. A pity if one is into originality but there you are - needs must.
ORIGINAL: IStowe
Guess I should call it a CDI unit although not sure what the i stands for.
Ignition .
Capacitive Discharge Ignition unit a.k.a. sparkbox
Take a look at the ECU thread under Classic and Heritage

BTW Permatune also do a replacement 3 pin CDI (I think they were also an OE supplier to Porsche at the time) which their blurb states replaces the original Bosch unit 227-200-001. Its all new inside and they say it bolts up and plugs into the same location as the original.They call it 'Model 911 Ignition module'. Link here isl www.perma-tune.com/P-Porsche-911.html and this also covers suppliers, which include Mittelmotor in Europe.
