Hi Phil
My Partner is a pretty gifted mechanic (rebuilt her own motorbike engine!)
her question to me is generally have you put the rotor arm back! To which I
will respond yes I'm just putting it back!!!
The damn thing always seems to be sitting on the inner wing!

Graham.

wire
| from the coil to the distributor?".  That was it.  We were on our way.
