Dear Paul,

Sorry for re-opening this old subject, but I did not join the Series 1 
e-mail list until 13/Sep/2005...

I am having the same problem with the Lucas DVXH4A distributor (part 
233552) fitted in the 1997cc petrol engine of my 1952 80" Series One.

Unfortunately, Dunsfold sold their last sample just a few days before my 
order! I have tried to find the vacuum unit, also under the Lucas 
reference 400904, somewhere else (Craddock, Blanchard, Fasteners, 
Orphanage, e-bay...) without success.

Did you finally find any good solution?

Thanks in advance for your answer.

Best regards,

Paco
