Wouldn't touch one again. My V8 came with one and was fine for a while, but
then started playing up, short-stroking causing fuel starvation, and
deciding when it was and wasn't going to work. !2v and ground supply at the
pump terminals was fine. Once it started playing up I was stranded until it
decided to start working again, and after a couple of times I took it off
and replaced it with a refurbished points type which has been no trouble.
That had been on my roadster and started playing up - points as usual, but
responded to a quick thump which kept it going again for several days, until
I eventually replaced it with a proper SU points type which has also been no
further bother. Stick (pun not intended) with points.
