Default opti

110000 miles.
Just replaced the opti cap and rotor with a Accel cap & rotor. I thought it would take about a hour, nope. Now runs great.
It would be nice if Accel would have shipped a small TQ socket ect. that's needed for the install were shipped along with there stuff.

just so you know, dont just change the cap and rotor. there is more to the opti than that. the optical reader degrades and fails. i would not be surprised if you are doing the opti in the near future. heres a easy way to make a tool to remove cap https://camaroforums.com/forum/lt1-l...41/#post614528
