DISTRIBUTOR!
Just coming to the end os a major re-build which has been the usual battle every inch (centimetre?) of the way & about to set up the timing when the old Lucas electronic distributor passed peacefully away. No doubt about it, like the Monty Python parrot, it is deceased. That's the way with trans...

starting up on 4barrel weber
Hi! I fitted one early 2006 & all it needs is full choke 'til it fires, then ease choke in straight away (maybe it's running a bit rich). Pumping mine would flood it. Is your pump filling carb? Mine ticks all the time, just slows down a bit as carb fills. Not having had the problem, can't really...

Sorry, the only details I have are as per my last e-mail, which is as they appear on the invoice. From the instruction manual, the carb is a Performer Series. I got the bits from RPI - they say their deal is a comprehensive kit, but having done the job there's no magic about it. I ended up with a ch...

speedo
Hi! I put a cheap bicycle digital speedo in my SIII as I change diff ratios from time to time! Reads direct from rear wheel via sensor on brake drum & magnet on drum itself. It's worked a treat for several years now. Only snag: no backlight. Has to be lit directly in front of face to read in dar...

SOURCING A NEW ENGINE
Thanks, Londoner. Like everything else, once you get on the net the mind starts to boggle! I once read that the famous Red Baron had a chandelier made out of an opponent's radial engine (with light bulbs where the cylinder heads used to be) but that coffee table made out of a V8 block on the Lund si...
