I'm not sure about your year, but the 900S was typically the 2.3 litre non-turbo. Just pop the bonnet, and read the displacement on the valve cover. If it says 2.3, and the center is black, not red, than you do NOT have direct ignition. While you are this far, (assuming it's the 2.3)pop the distributor cap, and make sure that oil is not getting in there. It happens on higher mileage cars. Good news is that it takes only five minutes or less to change, and costs about half of the direct ignition cassette that seems to need replacement as often as every 50,000 miles on the turbo cars. All the four cylinder cars use a timing chain.
