Hi Folks
Back on the list for the English summer (!)
Over the last few weeks I have fitted a new engine, and have now
encountered a problem which I am sure you have all seen before but I
am really struggling to get it fixed.
I am trying to find out the fitting details for the distributor, I
have checked the spark - ok, checked the points  - ok, but the
position of the distributor eludes me, and there are no pictures to
look at to compare what I have with what it should look like.
What is the best way to proceed apart from giving up and taking it to
the garage (which I really don't want to do as I wanted to learn how
to do all this stuff).
It is now a bit of a retro fit, it has twin carbs (took out all the
fancy fuel injection in preferencewith something I had an inkling of
how to maintain) a 2 litre engine aircooled, and looks great  - just
cant get the thing to fire up!
Any advice from you folks is more than welcome, the UK people aren't
responding much!
Happy travels
Paul
