    If you change your mind, the hole is located 125mm to the RIGHT of that RHS bolt that retains the spring mechanism (your second pic), and it is 33mm up the face of the panel, from the fold, from the measurements I have taken on mine.

    Well done- glad you got it sorted. Such "minor" problems can be really irritating.

    Just for interest. yesterday I collected the 93SE and the engine was shuddering on idle but seemed driveable. It crawled only half way up the first major hill with very little torque before the oil light came on again with oil once again exiting the dizzy seal. The vehicle is now back in Goulburn and I do not think the mechanic has any fu#4*ng idea what do do to fix it. I'm ordering the correct OEM dizzy seal today, also an oil pressure switch. My guess is the dizzy was put back in the wrong position so the timing is out

    Thanks. I did fit flat bar and distance is extremely close to your measurements. And wonder of wonders both primary and secondary latch - work. The adjustment on the secondary is in the striker plate it slides back/ forth.

    crankcase pressure .... probably best to clean out the crankcase ventilation system.... oh, and yes, sounds like the timing is wrong (or possibly even the firing order).
