Only coil I could lay my hands on was the later type, which I had to fiddle up a plug and mount for. It took me until 9:45pm to get it back up and running, and ready for tomorrow mornings club cruise to Yankalilla.

Good to see you got it going again. Did it behave today?

I made the cruise, but it wasn’t behaving. The fuel pump was only a patch up job. NOS black motor pump going on. I will have to bend up a different pipe for it. Easy and satisfying job.

Fuel pump seems ok at the moment. I got a new oil filled 45kV coil and changed the cap and leads. Went for a 5km drive and all seems good.

These 195/70R14s going on the ute are very close diameter to the 185/80R13s now going on the sedan. Image
