Hey there Rob,

They had a few more problems than what you have described. The bonnet had a huge problem of opening at the most un-opportune moments and the distributor had a habit of seizing at high revs which ultimately chopped out the cam gear. This happened to me on a few occasions. This mongrel mechanic at the local dealers stuck in a taxi cam instead of the high performance roller which was fitted originally. I had the only Police pursuit vehicle that would get 30 miles per gallon, but would only pull 85 mph tops.


What happened to him is another story.
