Ed,
         Back when this a very popular interchange, the pigtails were 
readily available. Every FLAPS had them. (I AM one, btw) They were 
for VWs, all Lucas, etc.
         I believe the struggles you are having are due in part to 
the 20 year old instructions. Those parts are now less popular, A 
local rebuilding shop should be able to help. Another issue you are 
likely having is that your 250 probably has the original wiring.
         If you need help, contact me directly.
