This was not a 'plug and play' straight swap for the original 09 distributor as suggested. The advance does not appear to be sufficient or in the right rev range, also implied by the 'one setting suits all' in the brief instructions for setting '0 for all VW's'. The car's tachometer no longer reads correctly, making set-up difficult and neither '123 ignition' nor Heritage Parts Centre advisors could offer a solution. I'm still working on setting up the car corectly and not helped by the fact that qualified carb tuners are rarer than hen's teeth.
