Looking for information for the Echlin Distributor Lab is like looking for a Users Manual for the Allen Distributor Machine Model E1219. Merry Christmas.

Bob, can't find Echlin instructions, but here's Allen in case you or anyone else needs them.

They appear to be very similar though I've not seen an Echlin.

(Like to get my hands on it ... but I don't do MA in the winter. Been there, etc....)

Echlin used the old Allen units. Your machine is a Allen with Echlin ids on it. They did the same with Rotunda etc units.....
Send me some really detailed pics of the wiring and controls , i can help....
