Still want these if anyone has a set??

Get a decent cover too, make sure its breathable though.

I was in a similar situation 2 years ago. Knew I had a baby on the way and thought to myself there is no way I am putting my kid in something as unsafe as a nova. I decided to sell it and get...

Update

I got my distributor back today after it has had a new vacuum fitted and a few other bits renewed. I fitted it to the car and there is no difference to how it ran before. I am hoping I...

A bit of Neneh Cherry for some reason gets me wanting to work on the car. It's probably cos I remember it being on the radio when my mum had a new Nova SR back in the day.

Footman James are cheap for me on classic policy. They don't use no claims bonus. Cost me 150 for mine last time with a fault claim. Mine is a standard 1.3 however....

Have you look at the weber website? Webcon or something its called... they will sell you a linkage that uses your standard throttle cable.

You might be better off sourcing a new kit. Not cheap from weber but no messing, its got everything you need plus instructions and is jetted for a standard 1.3. Keep your eye on ebay too, I got a...

There are plenty on ebay mate depending on what you are after. How much are you wanting to spend?

Xbox just cos I don't like the PS3 controller.... it's ghey.

It's as if there is no diaphragm, no resistance at all when I blow or suck on it. (Ooh err!) It must of been like it before I change the cam and head gasket surely, I just hope it sorts out the...

Yes, there is the slot as you say then a hole on its own as well. Is there a benefit to the newer dizzy or not really?

I'll give them a ring cheers mate.

Yeah good plan. Where do I get a recon dizzy or even new. Had a look on ebay but they are all for the 1.4 engine. I assume this can't be adapted to fit mine?

Again, thanks for the reply. I had the car running this morning before I went to work and did as you said. I blew down into the vacuum advance and I couldn't tell a difference in engine note. All I...

I took the coil off this morning and gave all the contacts a good clean, same with the dizzy, put it back together and it fired up first time.

Although I altered the timing yesterday it seems to...

I tried that too. Couldn't see a spark there either.... I will look again tomorrow, I'm wondering about an earth strap being the issue.

I got my missus to turn the key and there was definitely no spark. It ran earlier in the day. The only thing different since then is I moved the crank back a notch on the belt if you know what I...

These pics were taken with the engine in the same position as the ones with the timing marks, ie not turned over.
