Hi, just got my first camper, 2.0 Aircooled 1982, :D needs a bit of work.

On the M60 the engine gave up the ghost. :cry: I have got my hands on a replacment 2.0 Aircooled. :D

I can't seem to find a garage in manchester to change the engines over for me so I guess i'm going to try myself. :? first time for everything.

The engine in the camper has points and condenser and the replacement looks like it had electronic.

Is this a problem? can I just change the dizzy over?

please help before my Mrs kills me for buying a "worthless piece of S***"

dont bother swapping it , its supposed to have electronic, keep it that way......
im guessing you didnt get the ingnition bits with the engine?
get hold of one of the breakers on here (T25spares, syncrospares,syncronutz, billy739 ect) and get the proper bits, including the engine room loom.
manchest Aircooled maybe a option, i dont have their number, but a bit of googling may find it for you..... or PM "dug"
