same on mine too ever since i've had it, never caused any problems so never seen the point of changing. emissions ok too.

Stamp on it.
Set timing to 30 degrees full advance and leave it at that.

didnt think the unit would do a lot as my bay 2 litre performs well with out such a device

Just panicked a bit when i found it hidden in a cupboard
