[TR] Distributor bits

[Bill]

Not entirely true ... original engine was 1991 cc , the TR3B was 
upped  to about 2200 cc Check the number on the bottom of your 
distributor,  if it is DM2 that is for the TR2, but will probably 
work, if 26D  maybe 25D not sure without looking then you are good to 
go ... Works fine with 91 octane.

Good Luck
