    Just be aware not all electronic ignitions are the same.
    Powerspark --- is a brand name not a type.
    They produce differing versions of electronic ignitions which in turn require different rating coils to operate. The most common type uses a std.2.5-3ohm coil but there is a full on electronic unit also that uses a coil with less than 1 ohm (.75) resistance.

    I don't have radios in the Sprites, Alan
    This is in moderns, hence the Bluetooth connections. Though I am also commenting on radio options when at home.

    Isn’t the sound of the engine music enough?

  • GuyW05 December 2025

    Yes, I was meaning the music stations. But I agree, Radio 4 is usually QI. And although I know little of classical music I will occasionally put on Radio 3 in the car as its usually quite melodic and relaxing.

    On my regular road car aim for every 5 years.

  • Bill B05 December 2025

    Bit of a sweeping statement Guy! Do you mean speech or music? I don't generally listen to radio 4 but, despite the naysayers, I think it has quality output.

    I've always listened to music and listened to radio 2 for years but became more and more fed up with the playlist, especially after they "got rid of" certain presenters, so now only listen to selected programmes. When in the garage...

    Chris,

    21 pints is about 12 liters? :)

    2 1/4 pints (2.7 US) is as you say 1.3 liters.

    Book says Hypoid oil.
