I think the recliner (by the tunnel) is much longer, narrower, and more significantly chromed. If you meant the tilt knob (by the door) that is round and hard plastic. PaulH. -- Original Message --

If you could get enough force onto the release arm, but unless it was hooked up to an MGB master cylinder you would need to ensure you only gave it the real-world travel (1/2" to 5/8") or it would be

Your 'sigh' is rather misplaced, it should be for indigenous manufacture rather than total exports. The number of vehicles exported in 2004 was more than double the figure you quote for 1951 at 1,179

But wobbling a radial slot from side to side across an optical (at least) sensor will surely cause the timing to trigger, and so a varying wobble in use will cause varying timing? Wobbling a radial s

Ah, I'm not doubting that an electronic pickup reduces the effect of sloppy bearings, as it is the slope of the cam combined with the spring of the points that will tend to maximise the wobble, and i

Is the tach flicking about when this happens? If so check the distributor ground wire, this ensures continuity of the ignition LT circuit when the points plate twists due to changing manifold vacuum.
