Got 2x CBR43's, just in case & you know, that will mean I will NEVER need the second one...

under $30 from my local parts store vs $20 ea from Trademe

Diagram from the 'Haynes' and with the Multi-meter I'm recording 2~ Ohm & 5~ Ohm

will that be an issue, or have I got the wrong units?

alrighty it was a bit of a Saga & I'm sure OS is sick of hearing about it (waasnt really much anyone could do without physically looking at it & I didn't help much)

we checked everthing else, fuel, diaphragms, sparks, wirings... then

I didn't have that (it never has)

car goes good now & may explain the dead resistors too

Starter begun making a grinding noises a month or so ago (And I;ve been side tracked / focused on other things for a bit : yeah

then stopped

I've never had a spare until my 1st Visit to Ron's horde the other week
