Suggestions Please: As is, my Series I (Jan. '71 build) will start. The problem is it is taking more and more turns of the ignition key to get it to fire-up. The only constant is that every time I turn the key for ignition, I hear a very audible 'click' coming from a relay(?) mounted on the interior wall in the area of the passenger's right knee. In addition to this clicking sound, I can feel the actual internal movement by touching the metal housing with my right hand while turning on the ignition with my left hand. To help with a diagnosis, the battery is strong, and the wiring contacts to the starter motor are clean. Also, this problem occurs the same with both sets of the original ignition keys. So, is the problem coming from the keys, the key barrel, the relay (as noted above), or farther down the line to the starter? Where do I begin? Thanks -
On a 1973 240z with the L28 motor and SU carbs. Just want to go electronic ignition aftermarket drop in without upsetting the tachometer. Since the car is essentially stock, not racing, Is there a best aftermarket drop in distributor? I'm doing a rebuild and want to put the distributor on before dropping the motor in.
