I set out to fit an Accuspark electronic unit to my 1972 Type 3 Automatic Variant today but it does not fit.

I have emailed them of course to ask why not.

My Distributor has a round hole on the body for the original wire to pass through. Their kit has a square grommet, which is far to big. When the locating lug on base plate of their unit is engaged in the base plate of the distributor the screw hole in the base plate of their unit does not align with the screw hole in the base plate of the distributor.

Please can anyone advise why it is incorrect ?

I wanted to fit it today so I could take the car for MOT Test tomorrow. I do not have a new Contact Set or Condenser I can fit because I was not supposed to need them any more.

Steve
