I think it has a distributor. So does it have a brown plug?

But even with a distributor (really maybe only a cps? And a spark distributor) it may not have any advance functions in the dizzy. So computer controlled advance- maybe it does have a brown plug.
Not that familiar really.

i could go pull the colt/cordia or magna manual and have a look. If op needs more info. They had a similar setup.

Usually timing with distributor there is a vacuum line to disconnect, I assum coming from intake. Oh Iv not noticed a sticker under hood, admittedly the bonnet has been off the car more then it has been on since owning the beast

Well and truely, couldn't have said it better myself. It goes against every grain in my body but i think I'm going to put some of that head gasket fixer shit in the cooling water.. I simply can't afford to go without a car an this wee car is costing more then I can afford (an more then it's worth for that matter!) I'll check tourqe on head studs but I'm not crossing my fingers. Meanwhile my rb20det is still lacking my focus :'(

This turd definitely can't be polished, I even tried rolling it in glitter.. It's better then it was... But still stinks like shit lol
