With all the hoohah over the electronic unit, I picked up a spare original auto-advance distributor today thinking of getting it ready as a spare. And of course, it's all a bit ropey.
I know Distributor Doctor has lots of stuff, but has anyone found cunning ruses for replacement of bits to the same spec, or other suppliers of the overhaul (rather than service) items?
Online I found "What I have found is that the springs out of the Distributor fitted to the Series 2 Morris Minor Distributor can be pressed into service quite effectively in an Austin Seven".
Is this a well known fact, or do others have their own recommendations for such things?
