You've put your location in the occupation field of your profile

Have you found a 2nd hand one yet, I might be able to dig one out - whats up with your old one?

there are several on ebay from as little as £1, or are we not allowed to say that ?

thanks harryman and beaker harryman the engine keeps cutting out and mechanic has narrowed it down to distributer problem it cuts power off for split second sometimes cutting engine out altogether

Course we can say that Aidan, esp. if it helps someone...

Doubt if theres a queue for them

Maybe the mechanic is implying the Hall Sender unit in the dizzy seems to be the culprit - but this intermittent vutting out is a bit of trademark of these engines as they get older - there's a thread up at the moment on Tech a bit similar...

Shall I keep looking or you going to bid on an eBay one..?

hi harryman have taken distributer of a friend of a friends 91 1900 to try it and see if it works if it does will be in touch to purchase thanks

OK, let me know... should have one somewhere, should
