What a year already, wife in a coma, smashed car up etc, anyway, onto my problem. I have a Rover V8 and can't find anywhere that tells me how to wire the damn thing up. It's the 35dlm8 version with the little black thing stuck to the side circa 1987 from a 3.9. Any one help? diagrams are better if possible.

Hope this answers your Q's DLM8

Helped a bit, there was once a diagram, think it was on here, of how it all wired up with resistor and coil but can't find it now. If it goes bang I know it's wrong.
