Hi
i've just retrieved the van back from the garage where its been for a tune up since i put in the "new" distributor
however they tell the diaphram on the vacuum unit has gone
is it possible to source a new one? if so where from?
any pointers in the right direction would be greatly appreciated
thanks

light travels faster than sound, which explains why some people seem bright until they open their mouths

Re: Distributor bits
yeah, but it confuses the hell out of me
if i could work out which vacuum part no. relates to the CU dizzy, i'd try it that way

Obsolete, has been for years.
Bosch no longer make them either.
We have had reasonable success with fitting a DG item and blanking off the retard pipe, only a economy/emmisions device anyway.

Re: Distributor bits
CU version is not available from classic parts and they can't get them, so I guess go with the DG version or the DJ version and see how it goes
