Maybe slightly out of the way for you but Cheng at Thunder Road Cars is the Man for the Job . Give him a ring 0208 502 4090 There is nothing he doesnt know about sorting a Cob .

Do you know what part needs replacing?

If you run an RV8 and its the rotor arm then I bet I can guess what's happened!

Of course I don't know what lump you are running so I could be miles off!

Ah..."Miles off" then!

I thought that when the car was serviced they may have changed the rotor arm, there are a load of cheap pattern ones for Rover lumps and the insulation breaks down causing the engine to konk out!
