Hi All
Finally started work back on the T25 project that#s been blocking my drive for 2 years. Anyway fitted the 2nd hand engine in which had a distriubter already fitted. However its a different (older) type with points in. My one has the wires coming out that go to the box on the engine bay etc (can post pics if needed?). So I thought I'd take that out and stick my one in as it'll connect up etc. But when I took the old one out my expecting to drop mine in its place I noticed my rotor arm would be about 1/5th further round. Do I just retime it? Its so long since I've been near a distirbutor my brain cant remember how they time up and my manual is sitting tucked away in my Mums loft. I'm guessing I'm missing something obvious here?

What engine?

Whoops, sorry its been along day. CU 2.0 air cool, with carbs. You can see the one that in there and just see the original one above it in the picture.

Do a search for "009" or "Retrobodge" and that should shed some light on the subject.
