    I know Taffr is a strong supporter of one box systems as he has told me to hack mine off too!.......might be tempted as it sounds too "stainless" at the moment!

    • Well.....what a day of high and lows

      The car started after a couple of turns, but the exhaust downpipe blew a little so took it off and Dale got his welder out again

      Then, the engine would not start.....there was no spark

      It transpired the dizzy had developed a problem whereby the points were not lying correctly due to some flexing in the plate beneath it. Some pressure placed on the right hand side of the points with a screwdriver would allow a spark

      Changed the dizzy for a spare and all was well If anyone has a nice spare dizzy, please let me know

      A couple of vids below off my camera: It sounds like a tractor in the vid, but its not as bad as that ! The rasp from the exhaust now the centre box is removed is a lot sweeter (P.S.....The plug leads have been tidied up now !)
