Hi everyone, just wanted to let you that she's up and running!! I managed to sort the issue with the distributor by replacing it with the old one without electronic ignition, set timing as best I could and she, well couldn't believe it, two pumps on accelerator and it fired right up!! Smile on my face, unbelievable!! Then for the drive..... Under its own steam, auto gearbox a treat! Drove it round the little industrial unit and wow what a feeling!! Got some niggly bits to sort out but otherwise I'm closer to getting it on the road so I'm really chuffed! Thanks to all of you for your advice and help so far! I've finally got some pics of the bus in the daylight now!! Cheers guys!
