Hi Rick,
I love what you do with your grandson.
My Sunday afternoon is being spent researching the MGB ignition process. My B
hasnâ??t been driven much over the past few years because of a problem that
Iâ??m assuming is probably points related. It was running great after my
mechanic did a tune up and then it started sputtering and now canâ??t pull
itself around the driveway. At the last service my mechanic convinced me to
replace the Petronix electronic ignition for points. Iâ??m hoping that
reinstalling the electronic ignition will cure my problem.
Watching YouTube videos to make sure I will know how to do it. Finally cooling
off here in Tulsa so it is perfect MG weather.
