  1. This is a cover to access the clutch slave, but same idea.
  2. I'd guess more likely air in the system, than a failure of the servo. You said it takes several pumps to firm the pedal. Usually a bad brake servo (vacuum type) is a REALLY hard pedal that barely moves and poor brakes. Pumping compresses the air.

    Steering wheel puller?
  5. Check for a broken Small Brown/Yellow wire.
  6. Everything is fused. Except the line to the alternator. LHD car.
  7. All kind of wiring diagrams. http://www.spitfiremk2.co.uk/
  8. Is this a US spec car? That red wire in the bonnet loom would be for the side lamps on the bonnet's fenders.

  10. The original tires that came on my new '73 from the factory were 155x13. That was a US car though.
  11. Power to the motor is always hot. The switch is a grounding unit. Here's a '73 RHD. http://www.spitfiremk2.co.uk/mk4rh73.html
  12. Set the static timing, if the car isn't running to about 8 deg BTDC. Put the groove in the pulley at the 8 BTDC mark. Your rotor should point at #1. Turn the distributer til the points just open. For more tuning, I start the car and warm it up. Then turn the dist. til it runs best. Reset the idle. Take it for a drive. If it pings on accel, turn it back a bit. Done this for years on many cars.
