Re: New-to-me 66 Corsa!

Re: The infamous EDIS conversion
Nick,
Had a couple questions (FROM DONOR CAR)
1 Crank angle (VR) Sensor
1 reluctor wheel (36 minus 1 tooth)
1 6-cylinder coil pack
1 EDIS Module
Associated wiring, to include the connectors for the sensor, coil, and control module. These parts shouldn't cost you more than $150 at the junkyard ...
