Just for info really but proof that other things com into play with CIS and WUR:- When I bought my car it used to ‘surge’ at idle when cold and hesitate and do all the CIS bad stuff. All came good after replacing the air box. No more surging and no more hesitation. I have never touched the WUR or messed with the control pressures etc.

Well I’m guessing this could be connected to a vehicle with a 24v system. A better photo of the label might help...

24V to 12v converter?

What's the latest advice on contactless points?

^ Pertronix have been cost reduced. If you get one, hold the plastic collar to your ear and shake. If you hear rattling then that’s the magnets moving around which are responsible for the ignition timing! -
School rules. Anyone with ‘art’ in their name...

^ Electric AC compressor mounted up front? Bit behind the curve there Gordon! 😂

Great colour!

Good job I asked. Will see you on the A22 near Uckfield. will lurk in the lay-by about 9ish
-
Is the route set now? I’m gonna catch you up somewhere en route.
-
^ ok, time to pin this down for those who are trying to meet en route. 🤣 what time are you leaving Clackett Lane?
-
Is that route final now? You were going past my front door but not any longer. Might try and catch you on the A21 after T Wells.

^I agree - AC at the front and oil cooling at the back. I’ll be fitting the bigger fan but right now it’s a pain as it means another oil drop. Playing with this right now...
-
Been using the car as intended and the oil temp has been fine - the needle never over half way. I have bought a slightly bigger oil cooler for further development - mainly because It would allow fitment of a larger fan. Will have to get stuck in to that at some point but want to use the car whilst weather is good. To complete the clean look I painted the underside of the sill area black. I actually used Plastidip so can peel it off if I change my mind. In order to test out the idea of oil cooler based heating I bought some headers from TRE in the US. They’re mild steel but have an aluminium coating.
