[T3] Revelation 009 dizzy a few paragraphs
Hi all,
I had a horrible revelation this weekend. I was adjusting the idle on my
carbs and doing a general quick check up (oil, timing, etc). I decided to
check on the dizzy's part number because every since I own the car I have
been baffled at the lack of a vacumm cylinder. The part number included the
digits "009", a few minues ago, while looking at some sites, I realised that
I also have a Bosh 009 blue coil. In over a year of owning a T3, and
hearing about 009s and blue coils (as the parts not to have in your T3), it
never occurred to me to pay attention to what I have in my engine.
So I regret to say that I have a 009 setup with stock dual solexes.
Needless to say (when I have time away from an impending birth, renovations,
and work) I will be looking for a t3 specific dizzy.
Questions: If I go to a pick-n-pull place and I am lucky enough to find a T3
sitting there, how do I test the dizzy to make sure that it will be a bolt
on purchase rather than a restore-bolt-on purchase?
