Hi John
The 25D4 dizzy is very common, Most of the Triumph 4 cyl range used this
dizzy with the exception I believe of the mechanical tacho Spits, Delco
Remy?
If you don't like the idea of asking for an MG cap ask for one for a Herald
or Toledo or 1300 FWD.
If you change the cap why not spend the extra for a new rotor arm and be
sure, the arms do seem to vary brand to brand, so unless the cap is the same
brand as the arm there can be problems!
Graham.
