update:
installed the points system distributor, static timed it and it started.
Then checked the timing with a strobe light and it was too advanced.
Static timing is so basic and the strobe proved my point.
Adjusted the dissy and then went for a test drive.
It Went like a rocket, sound nice, pulls and accelerates well.
Returned to shed very pleased with myself. Might just leave it there for a while.
Now the hazard lights and spots wont work? must have pulled a wire or two when removing the Mobelec electronic system?
Another trip to the auto electrician is called for I think!
sigh.......
