Received this photo from Andy Brooks today.
This bug was in the petrol tank banjo fitting, may explain the issue with rough running at low revs.
The replacement Petronix dizzie fitted late last year has now started leaking oil, given that the shaft sheared on the previous one I'm not very impressed.
Looking forward to having a nice reliable C-V8 next year.....

The problem is a lot of this stuff is now made in China and Mexico where price seems to be more of a consideration than quality. I fitted an MSD Coil recently that had ''Made in China'' stamped on the boxzacmarshall wrote:
