That takes me back !!
My Dad used to have one to use on his Mk2 Cortina in the 70's.
Note the A series engine on box cover.

Any suggestions how this has changed so much from the last time it ran. Not changed or moved it at all. Suspect engine not at TDC in picture. Rotate engine 360° . Remove No.1 spark plug and use a screwdriver or similar to check piston at top of stroke. Rotor arm should be lined up with mark on rim ...

Distributor looks to be 180° out. There is a mark on distributor at around 4 o clock . That should TDC. You can see mark in picture.

How the times have changed!
I'm happily stuck in the 70's .

I have the stainless 2 tip gt on my 1.9 dg motor. Decent fit but quality of some of the welding suspect. Had to take it off after a few weeks to find source of rattle.
See pic. No issues since I welded it up properly.
