Mmmm ... Brand new = $120+ and will fail in 2 years flat

Click on the link I put up and go to the contacts section
Phone them up in Queensland and give them your CC numbers
They will send you a reco unit complete with a "return to sender" envelope
Pop your old unit in the envelope and send it back to them
They then refund the "Deposit"

All up (from memory) .... 75 clams .... :)
Takes 3 to 5 days to get here

They use real rubber ....
Better than original and should last longer too
How good is that, eh



I've bought at least 4 units off them to replace various rovers ......

Cheers

Your memory is fine...

Here's their reply, in part.

"....$75 plus freight as an exchange unit.
$9 express post to you plus $6 return freight bag(pre-addressed postage paid).
A deposit of $30 is charged if we send you the diaphragm
without first receiving your old one.
We refund the deposit when the old unit arrives back here.
....."

Total outlay, $120, then deduct refund of Deposit, means a nett co$t of $90 Quite reasonable indeed :-)

Should out-last the vehicle... :p

Playing Devil's Advocate... has anyone bought/used the evilBay $165 dizzy ? Did it work? and for how long ??? - Comes with attached Chi-LUCAS ign. module which would be at least as good as the British version.... not too difficult!!!

Ordered and paid for the vacuum advance unit today. - Spoke to Mike, it'll be sent out in today's post (Friday 2nd.)
- Reckons it can be done without removing the distributor.... Will start on it tomorrow (IF Orders from SWMBO allow some free time...)
Good excuse to change the plugs and leads :eek:
