- I agree with you although my J2 (May '33) had a Rotex dynamo. I believe the change was completed by the time 'P's were produced. Cheers, "Bob". British Cars Web: http://www.team.net/sol MMM list sub

- Hi Lew, I agree on the time period you state for Lucas - Rotax takeover, but I also think most MMM cars had Rotax PLC's. My PB is the 18th built and it had a Rotax switch, and all the factory photo d

- Hi Guys, There is nothing definitive here but to further confuse the issue I'll relate the following. In the 1975 MMM Yearbook there is an article, along with a wiring diagram which includes various

- I remember researching this issue for my J2 when I was in England in 1983 - 1985. I just remember puzzling over this issue and coming to the conclusion that my J2 (J2247) should have Rotax, but coul

- No precise information I'm afraid, but as far as I know all P-types had Rotax switches, though of course, by this time Rotax was only a trading name of Lucas... Nick Wright PA 2218 In researching par
