Hey guys my car is dead and i believe it is the dizzy as both the coil and battery have been renewed and still no go ! Would this Dizzy from Ebay be fine?

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/DISTRIBUTOR-COIL ... 286.c0.m14

Or is there a better one?

That $35 one looks like my best friend at this moment ! They are pretty tricky to fit arent they?

u have the log manifold? with the throttle body sitting down near the raditor bottom hose? and an airbox behind passenger headlight, that is multipoint

centrepoint has an airfilter, like carby style setups above centre of rocker cover

That looks like a good price there and I would say that it IS MPEFI. The Genuine Distributor is $580.00, the reason we don't sell them anymore. :D
