Nice work Fridders. Looking forward to meeting your car in the flesh again sometime. Are you ready to come to an Irish rally yet? http://www.lancia.myzen.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=6046.0 |

Thanks for the invite, but will probably only be able to go to local Brands Hatch and the Pininfarina event for now. Hopefully those fingers are still attached to their owner!

Hi Richard, when we met on Saturday you asked me to post some pics of my convertible. I took it out today for its first long drive since I fitted the electronic ignition and it was a delight. The engine now pulls much more smoothly from low revs making the car feel easier to drive. Also when hot the slight tendency to uneven running at low speed is gone. Anyway here are the pics -

And just a couple more, the first shows the Frenos Iruna brake servo - which is excellent. Also you can see how the distributor hides under the air box making point adjustment a real pain, which was my main reason for going to the electronic ignition.

Charles, that looks absolutely wonderful, I am not surprised you are enjoying it so much.
I will definitely consider electronic ignition on the B20, but it must be reversible !! I had a Pirhana system on a Volvo a few decades ago and it was excellent.

Lovely Charles, glad it's going well! My PF smoothed out once I adjusted the idle mixture. The idle circuit has influence up to 3000 rpm it seems. Also have fitted a Facet fuel pump today, and will fit a fuel pressure regulator later this week.

Not due to be 'robbed' until the day after tomorrow, so what is the 'going rate'? 80 nicker? 5K car few hundred miles a year? May increase 'agreed value'? Garaged etc? Richard

Hagerty's with 2000 miles £87, includes breakdown & Recovery, 90 days European Cover also including breakdown and recovery; because of the Knights Rally I've upped mine to 5000 miles this year, the maximum mileage per annum they will cover, which bumps it up to £132. Brian 8227  |

Insurance and fuel delivery now sorted, so the next job should be tyres. With the existing 175 400s not readily available, 165 400s perhaps. A terrific sound accompanied the last knockings of this one, and I suspect awoke sleepy Hadlow whilst en route to Honnington Italian Day
