Its nice that the electronic flasher units click instead of beeping, say, the old ones only clicked because they had to as the bimetallic strip clicked the contacts in and out. Now we are so used to that, the electronic ones have to replicate it.

Afraid I bracketed a metal toggle switch on the gear lever on both TR (retrofitted OD, so had no stalk switch and new ones weren't around at the time) and 2000 - had been built OD, then someone converted it to auto, I changed it back as the automatic box was faulty, and the gearknob switch that was ...

The problem is I can't remember when and which car the fuzzies relate to. My present car seems to be fitted with a 12v coil but I cann...

I'm newish to this - picking up a restoration - though that might be too strong a word for it - I was last at in 2000 when there were more repair panels around.
