  1. Hi
    I've just replaced my distributor with a 123 tune distributor. Before I had my vacuum pipe removed as I was told it was not needed on my set up of K&N air filters with stub stacks.

    However, now I've got a programmable 123 distributor fitted should I refit my vacuum pipe before going to a rolling road to get it set up?

    Thanks

    Had a really productive weekend.
    Inbetween taking kids to football, the Olympics and visiting the beer festival organised by our village cricket club :-) I managed to:
    Fix my Overdrive which was down to a faulty switch
    Fit new rear speakers so will have some tunes.
    Sort out my headlamp relays
    Fit a new 123 distributor and cleaned the spark plugs whilst I was at it.

    Car is running sweet now.

    Jobs left to do are:
     Get tune done after fitting distributor
    Fix roof studs as a couple have come off
    Sort Interior lights
    Fit aerial 
    Change Oil
    Top up Diff Oil
    Clean car and put some miles on her.

    After months off the road my Spitfire is up and running. Although she did break down on the way to and back from the Essex area meet last Wednesday. Faulty new condensor seemed to be the problem.

    Jobs i need to do before the RBRR start are:
    Change distributor
    Change starter solenoid
    Change overdrive switch (hopefully that will get the overdrive working again!)
    change speakers
    Fit aerial
    Get tune done after fitting distributor
    Clean car and put some miles on her.

    Hopefully I will have this done before the drivers meet, as I don't want to repeat last year when I was working on her at the Plough one hour after everybody had left!

  4. Hi
    Can anyone recomend some reclining seats from a modern car that can be picked up cheap on ebay cheaply that will fit a Vitesse convertible wiothout having to do major work?

    Basically we would only want to put them in temporarily for the RBBR.

    Thanks
    Paul
