I was considering upgrading the dizzy on my 202 red to a blue motor electric dizzy, but it's a little fiddly plus if I break down on the side of the road it's alot harder to get the car started with the electric one. Any input is appreciated, cheers!! |
No worries, mate. |

Do it. Not fiddly at all, just get the dizzy, coil and leads and bridge the start and run wires at the ignition switch. Put a new module init before fitment and it'll go for 20 years. |

Couldn't agree more, the old girl is not game to play up now.
The only thing I would suggest if you don't do many miles is to take the cap off every now and then to ensure there is no moisture inside, other than that it really is "Set & Forget".
