<p>Ray,</p>
<p>No problem selling them, however shipping from NL is another
matter. At least $14 without T&T, with T&T $36. Better try
ebay, e.g.: <br>

<p>Just over a$1 for 10 incl. shipping!!.</p>

<p>Did you fit the transil in the same way the diode was
fitted? If so this is not correct. It should be fitted
as the capacitor is fitted, between the small screw
that holds the points blade and one of the bigger
screws that fix the Bakelite bridge to the coil body.
You can fit the transil instead of the capacitor or
parallel to the capacitor. A diode is fitted in series
with the points, a transil or capacitor is fitted over
the points.<br clear="none">

<div> The late Dave DuBois, who designed the
transistor-switch fix, quit doing the conversions when
he found the reduced voltage cross the points allowed
them to oxidize. I tried the transil fix, but didn't
get much more longevity than a stock points setup with
a diode; I do know some have had better luck with
them.<br clear="none">

I have a points/diode pump in my BN2 that works well,

<p>When rebuilding SU electrical fuel pumps I ad a
transil (e.g.. 1.5 KE18CA) over the points, parallel
or in stead of the capacitor if fitted. This reduces
the max voltage across the points to 18V instead of
several hundreds when the contact is broken and the
points spark. <br clear="none">
</p>
<p>It is also important to clean and polish the points
using flower paper (2-3000 grid), also when new!!</p>
<p>A transil is more or less a bi-directional Zener
diode. They cost next to nothing. I buy them in bulk
and pay about $0,15 but when buying only one expectÂ
to pay between $1 and $5. Ebay is an excellent way
to source transils (mainly from China).</p>
<p>A transistor circuit similar to those used in early
transistorised ignition systems does a similar job
by limiting the current through the points<br

<div dir="ltr">I'm rebuilding a couple of early S.
U. fuel pumps for my 100. In checking my reference
files I came across an article from the MG club
about adding a transistor circuit to reduce the
amps across the points. That would keep the points
from burning and extend the life of the points.
Has anyone on the list tried this? The author of
the article claims he has 20,000 miles on the
conversion and new looking contact points.
