MG Midget and Sprite Technical - New Lucas 45D

If anybody's having distributor problems, you might want to check out Victoria British part # 8-2070. A new Lucas 45D for $119.95. It seems like a pretty reasonable price to me.

I replaced my distributor last year because it was worn out & I couldn't accurately set points, timing, etc.

I replaced mine with a pertronix unit for about $100.00 more.
