 Craig I fitted  a petronix electronic ignition module to my bosch distributor about 5 years ago and used the original coil ,worked fine ,but later added the petronix coil . opened the plug gap to 32 thou and now the car starts instantly on the first revolution. can recommend this mod .cheers Steve

   Vern ,the puller is a blister pack ,number on pack plu12549 code gshf0324 ,it is bolt type puller with six bolts supplied ,2 of the bolts have larger heads ,by grinding three sides off these and to the shape of the wheel slots neatly, once inserted can be tuned 90 degrees to engage the  hub ,sure you will work it out ! let me know how you go .cheers Steve  cheep too .

   Thanks Rob and Kevin ,purchased a puller at supercheap and modified the bolt heads to fit the wheel slots ,works great ! cheers Steve .

   Was a puller ever available to remove fc steering wheels to avoid the brute strength method ,or maybe a modern one to do the job .cheers  Steve.

  Merry Christmas to all  FE/FC owners .hope you have a good one . cheers Steve.

  John ,thanks for the offer but I have found one local .cheers  Steve
