Recommended Posts

Hi, i got this one on e-bay for very cheap. new in box, never opened imho. but the assembly manual is missing. i have the schematic, but i am wondering if this was assembled "high wire", or if there was a PCB in there ever ??

the transfo is also missing, doh...

Pat - I have run across some technical correspondence letters in older Roundels, but no I/O manual. Wonder if Mike Self has one he could share.

yeah, i know there should be a pcb and sort of black encapsuled transfo.

Mike ? what have you done with yours that was toasted ?

If anyone has one of theses units collecting dust somewhere i could use it to copy the pcb and check transfo specs.

thanks.

a "PCB"?

I have an Archerkit Delta unit (assembled) and may have a schematic. Drop me an e-mail to remind me and I'll look. I have several of these that have a dead component inside somewhere but I don't know electronics enough to troubleshoot the problem.

BTW, the company that made the Delta (and Archer Kit) units is still in business either in Parachute or Grand Junction, Colorado.

Here's a link to a schematic for a Deltakit, which is presumably the same as the Archerkit since they were made by the same company. It's a Mark 10--the only difference between it and a Mark 10B is the B model has a swich that allows you to go back to conventional ignition without disconnecting anything.

Hope this helps.

Hi--

A Delta Mark-10 ignition was about the first addition to my'73 when it was a month or two old; it performed flawlessly for many decades and I still have it. I added a Western Controls distributor cam sensor after about 5 years; no more pinnts to gap or lubricate!

If Mike does not have the assembly/ instalation manual I probably do. Also, the Mark 10-C added multiple/variable spark timing and appeared in a different case.

Well, I found the manual; now to scan in the 26 pages (less positive ground instructions!) and see if they are small enough to post.

Hi--

Before I scan in all the Delta Mark 10 manual, here are the instructions for the Western Controls trigger sensor that has also worked flawlessly. Note that JPG files are all I have that are small enough to post. When i get the Delta manual ready page-by-page I'll have to see how many postings I need to get it all up, but I'll work at it.

Well, I guess I need one more to get the first page up!

OK, here it is, in as many postings I need for all 23 pages (but not the + ground instructions; this is why the page numbers have a break). Let me know if, after appropriate zooming, something is unreadable.

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
