I wish I had read an article like that 10 yrs ago, would have saved me a lot of bother!

However just a note here, The pictures show the pickup and earth wires connected very close to the pulley and fan belt....! Could be a costly end to your timing strobe if you are as clumsy as me.

Thanks for posting
