Being a Civil Engineer all I needed to know is that sewage runs 
downhill and payday is on Friday.

I have an electrical engineering question for the group. Couldn't the 
ignition capacitor be replaced with a modern diode to protect the 
points? I seem to remember that SU fuel pumps came with regular 
points, then a capacitor was added and finally a diode to protect the 
points. Why can't that be done to the ignition points too?

I bought a diode for my SU fuel pump from Peter PP and I know he 
takes capacitors apart to admire the foil so Peter, do you know?
