Rotor Arms

After suffering from the infamous rotor arm failure yesterday I was wondering what make's people are using in their 25D distributors, I know Minispares do an uprated part, and there are 'powermax' sets with points ect on the net, but are there any other recommendations that people have for all the ignition parts, (might have to go on the hunt for some NOS!)

New Old Stock should be easy enough to find at autojumbles or via eBay or you could try the link below:

Thanks for that Simon, any other information from other people would also be great

Personally, I'd stick to NOS Lucas rotor arms or failing that an old used Lucas one is usually more reliable than the repro crap available.

Phew! 2 post extoling the virtues of Martin Jay in one morning, maybe I should be charging him for advertising

I too try to use NOS, there are 2 types that fit, the usual tear drop shaped one & a much chunkier counterbalanced one, I try to use the latter & have never had any problems since I have used these.

I have just acquired a v large amount of nos parts inc points and I think - rotor arms

I can check for you?

i have about 40 boxed dizzy caps (inc lucas and boxes of points, bearings, approx 1000 rad hoses nos (Harmo and early QH) the list goes on -transit van was rammed full))

its not all mini but there are def A series items in there

I will dig out what rotor arms I can and see if I can find you a lucas one if your interested?

Original owner was a Lucas addict collecting for years - Nos items
