I can do one better! At the Champagne British Car Festival last month
I was showing my electronic ignition installation to a fellow LBC'r and
I popped the dizzy cap off to show the pick up. A little later I
attempted start the car for the afternoon drive and guess what? No
start! You guessed it! I LEFT THE CAP OFF! How much more blatant can
you get?
