I have a 1.7 with carbs and I'm not sure if the Dizzy is a 050 or a 009. I don't see the numbers on the case (dizzy installed in car). Are the caps for the 050 and 009 (as well as stock) different or will either work.

Also. can I just pull the dizzy out to get the number and then slide it back in without resetting the timing etc?

Thanks

caps are different.If you mark the spot where it was remove you can get it close but it will more than likely be a few degree off. Get a dial timming light check and make sure you have a time mark before you do anything. go to the bird board print the "how to set timeing"

Get a flashlight and a mirror, or tale a picture and sent it to us. The caps are different. The Cap'n

You can pull the dizzy and put it back with out changing the timing. Note where the rotor points before you pull it and put it back in the same position. Just make sure you don't turn the rotor 180 or loosen the timing adjust bracket.

the rotor will not be the problem its the dizzy housing that will change the timing. And he has to losen the anjusment screw to remove the Dizzy

You can remove the dizzy without changing the timing...leave the clamp tight around the dizzy and remove the 13mm nut that holds the clamp onto the engine case- pull it out. DH
