Dear British car lovers,

Some days ago I bought a 71 MG Midget and I am really excited about it. So 
I was eager to get it running again after having been standing for some 
years in a barn. 
... As I went on to check the ignition I found the weirdest settings that 
I can't explain: The spark plugs were not the recommended (Haynes) NY9 or 
so. The gap was a different, too. The points were at a different dwell, 
too. 
What should I trust? I didn't find any sticker under the hood that could 
have helped.
Can somebody please mail me the correct specs for the car?
Your help is greatly appreciated!

Agustin
