    At least it didn't cost much
    You would have really kicked yourself if you had paid for a new one!

    Could be a mod for hi/lo headlights, 2 relays per side, one for hi, one for low each side.
    do they click when you go from hi to lo with the lights on?
    The one on the rad is probably for spot lights.

    Hi Phil,
    They are not connected to anything.
    Earths are all joined together, and what I suspect to be Two Live feeds, which should be connected to the battery.
    Then what ever, connected to the relays.

    Maybe the PO was going to do the head light relay conversion.
    Must have been a mod though because AFAIK the S3 only has one relay and thats for the indicators.

    Just came across this thread... FWIW: if you are still in the hunt for carby replacement parts, the Carburettor Service Company (CSC) in Parramatta Rd Burwood (NSW) has a good supply of hard to get bits (usually). My BIL recently mentioned them favourably in regard to a Holden EJ he is restoring ...

    If you want to use the resister coil get yourself a resister. Then get a relay that is energized by your starting circuit and run battery voltage through the relay to the coil.

    This will give you a strong spark for starting.

    As for point gap, get yourself a dwell meter. Much more accurate than feeler gauges.

    Set between 30 to 35 degrees and make sure that every time you change your point gap you must reset your ignition timing.

    I was asked " Is it ignorance or apathy?" I replied "I don't know and I don't care."
