Thanks, Kenz240z!

I am trying to get the car in a decent condition before the baby is born because I have a feeling I won't have much time for the next 18 years, or so...

Ha, ha, I'm almost done serving two concurrent life sentences!!!! My daughter is away at university, and my son is a Senior in high school. I'm almost free!

The answer, of course, is for you and your new baby (when he or she arrives) to spend as much time together as possible working on Z cars! You gotta get the little person's priorities set straight right from the get go!

I've only got one son, and he's away at college. So time is no longer a problem, but money is!!

After months of inoperative tach after ZX distributor conversion and tons of thread reading I came across this thread that either I missed or was to lazy to read all the way through. ESCANLONS lucid wiring description solved my problem in about 2 minutes literally and that includes opening and closing the hood.

I feel like Dr. Frankenstein when the lightening bolts at the lab worked and he is yelling.'HE LIVES!!! HE LIVES!!!!

My thanks to ESCANLON ,ARNE et al this is a great and helpful site.

Best,

H Houghton

You're welcome!

The fact that you got yours working is what makes it worthwhile to post in the first place.
