Hmmm... Really not much to go on. Those old parts can be really difficult to identify. Dave, I can see why you potentially ID'ed it as an avalanche diode. Everything I found (quick internet search) in the old SOD case was avalanche style, designed for circuit protection. So how are they connected in circuit? Are the two of them connected together at the middle? If so, it's a check in the column for circuit protection. PS - I give that pic the "crappy tiny picture award" for the year. The year isn't over yet, but you're running strong to win the award!! Congrats.

I think this listing has one of the two: https://www.ebay.com/itm/176235020346 Full set here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/134841176467?chn=ps&mkevt=1&mkcid=28 It looks like the seller is only about an hour away from you, too.

that was a capt kirk copy (kirk in what are little girls made of?), will get a better picture later. Hopefully the sx200 ecu on the way will have a similar circuit I can steal from.

It looked fine to me.

No just trimmed it a little around the bracket, The hatch is closed most of the time anyhow. I have not had any issues It is a little tight around the hinges too.

Yeah, something really isn't right. I have snapped a bunch of pictures and talked with my engine builder, who did the work on this head. The current hypothesis is that the SI Stainless valves I bought are too long. The installed heights are still visible in black marker on the cyl. head: 1.787" is a lot more than the specification paperwork from Iskenderian (1.700"): The lash cap I pulled out with the one rocker arm I removed last night is .117" and about 3 tenths. Stock is .118". But the "kit" I ordered from Iskenderian has .175" lash pads, (part LC175 - is .175" thick - I looked it up on their site): The retainers currently installed look like the Isky ones. The depth to accommodate the lash pad is notable. Comparing to another exhaust valve which has not had the rocker and lash pad removed, the lash pad (I am assuming also .118"/stock) is "buried" in the retainer. So, the theory right now is that SI Stainless valves are taller than the stock valves (4.620"). I think I will have to pull the head. My engine builder is a great guy and he has provided me with so much value over the years. In this instance, I should have checked the wipe pattern before installed the head, but I did not. As far as I can tell, no damage has been done. So, I think I have been fortunate here.

Somewhere in the 260/280 range, they added entire front wheel well liners in plastic. I imagine they install where you indicated. There are two versions. Not aware there were any such thing on 240’s (all North American references)
