Just for completeness, I can report that I purchased the CV joint puller for a mere ยฃ5.99 and it performed its task faultlessly. | |

I gave up on the ball joint and unbolted the inboard end of the bottom arm. | |

David, Bearing in mind I am working from underneath, so only get access to about 1/3rd of the circumference, I haven't been able to shift it. The closing cap is a bit like a paint tin lid with a lip around the edge one can get a thin tool (old wood chisel followed by broad flat blade screwdriver) and then lever upwards. So far all I have achieved is to bend the flange upwards. Its pretty tight!

Has it got an electronic trigger in place of the points? We have found that some kits raise the rotor enough to cause this sort of contact, and yes it causes a misfire. Solution if this is the case is to trim a mm from the bottom of the rotor. | |

During this thread I've been wondering if the gearbox speedo output shaft is substantial enough to allow tapping it to remove the closing bung. I've fitted a few to various Ford gearboxes and they've never been tight, a bit of Hylomar to seal and tap them into place. Any thoughts? | |

Pushed the rotor down - seemed to be fully seated. | |
