Try the Novus plastic polish that is sold by TRF among others. I haven't tried it on a yellowed window, but it does an amazing job on removing scratches from an opaque one...

Apparently the other fix (besides the South African option) is a Bosch pump. Several of the usual British stockers will sell you these; if you don't have access to addresses, I can dig them up.

The standard response is Apple Hydraulics - $299 does the job on a pair of carbs. TRF does it for roughly the same price, though I don't know if they're doing the models used on GT6s. You might also

To the best of my knowledge, no TR6 ever came with a Delco distributer. Perhaps a GT6 did, though that would certainly be unusual. Sounds like someone did a transplant. The GT6 mk 1 and mk2 all came
