Any 8V distributor will work, but stick to the part numbers you know on the dizzy body the number on mine is the following: 16V will not its side mounted and wont fit!
037 905 205G this might be superseeded at VAG another part number 0237 520 026

Just a quick question: Does my car have a ignition control module in addition to the ECU. If so, where is it, and how do I test it... ? Is this a common source of fault?

Can anyone point me in the right direction to the location of the ground points to be checked...?

has to be a digifant 8v one tho, basically if it doesnt have a vacuum unit on the side then it will probably work. excsept MK3 2.0 ones, as they're too big to fit. 1.8 MK3 one might work too, I think the block is the same...
