Stihl 045AV conversion

[dbooth]

I have a Stihl 045av with a flogged out flywheel. Ordered (eventually) a replacement but it's for the electronic ignition model. I can't find a points flywheel anywhere so can I convert the whole thing using the new flywheel? Is it possible? What would I need to replace? is it worth it? Any help gratefully received.

SO many variables here. Which electronic ignition(Bosh or SEM)? Getting very hard to find a good one. Look for a parts saw. Preferably with another points setup. I would not trust a used electronic ignition for this model.
