Ok what you can do is test it with a Multimeter Connect multimeter to positive side of coil with engine running if it shows 12to14v you can buy lucas sports coil 12v, if test shows under 12v more like 9v you will need a ballast coil. hope this helps you: Mark

Mk1 Steering Column Top Bush
markbagelboy replied to Knapman's topic in Suspension, Steering, & Brakes
Hi knapman i had the same problem last month, i was told series 2 bush is not interchangeable with series 1, but Triumph MGA uses a felt sleeve you can buy them on ebay, i had to trim it a touch and soak it in oil, it has taken out the play for now so i can drive it. until i can find a permanent solution, what we need is some one to machine up some brass bushes :thumbup: -

Graham! are you running polyethylene bushes on your front suspension. I personally think It's a bad idea on a Mk1/2 cortina The standard bushes will absorb most of the energy going through the suspension. When poly bush won't End result is stress fractures & f##k ball joints
