Makes sense ta Frank il have a go at insulting / moving mine see if that helps (fingers crossed)

Do you think it could be so mate? interference..? it's not been touched...but naturally it's been prone to vibration lots of it... I know the pic isn't clear but you might get an idea of how the wire's running just beneath everything alone with the pipes..

Ohhhh now I remember.....I think it all started upon fitting a new dizzy with the inside 'needle' too..... does it make any sense? it had to be you to remind me.. loll

lol...my lights only come on when the hand brake is pulled figure out that!

 

[funky2nite]

didn't work for me tweaking with the wire. in fact considering this has not moved since install as it's been cable-tied up.

but still thanks for helping

Hi Mate,

Just to let you know i swopped my distributor for a spare & the cars running better than ever, smooth acceleration & no waving Tacho needle

Might be best to fit a known working one from a scrapper

Cheers mate for sharing this, Then I presume that I'd have to switch to the old dizzy cap though I'd have to check the pins inside how much's wear left of them.
