    Don't ever ever use a aftermarket dizzy with the gear it came with. It will chew the aux shaft gear in your engine.

    Good job mate I need you my dedicated LPG FG 2006 model has a very rough idle as a coil pack has gone but done the illumination problem of New LPG spark plugs new coil packs and still runs rough like it’s missing a cylinder maybe it’s the throttle body I’ll have to clean that again I no LPG is dirty on the intake and clean on manifold side 🥲

    awesome video simon! i see the original was a bosch and you replaced it with aftermarket parts, ive heard aftermarket distributors are known to fail within 6 months, maby just the ebay ones, my EL seems to have an aftermarket dizzy, so im going to try find a genuine bosch one, also i just replaced the coil with a fuel meizer one, same one you used, is this particular car still running great? i really dont want to be doing this again in 6 months time, hopefully i can get it running before the end of the day
