It’s a Lucas constant energy system with an AB14 module mounted on the right inner wing. It was fitted to other cars eg Jags.
Note the coil is also specific to this system.

Re: Lotus in the Peak 2024
I’ve just noticed the Classic run isn’t starting at Carlton Lees as last couple of years. I’m sure it did say Carlton Lees when tickets first released, but now - Classic run start point is Yondermann Café SK17 8RW on the A623. Still about 30 mins from the Manifold. For those staying on Friday Who wo...

Re: Carb fuel line removal
Nothing special, just the nut on the end of the fuel line to each carb. If fully refurbing carbs you will need to take the carb off the car, including the top cover. Otherwise it’s going to be a struggle to remove the float, float valve and top gasket. One thing to note - when removing the pin that ...

Re: NEC Restoration Show - 22-24 March 2024
In a word - no. Anodised trims were wrapped, a few minor paint blemishes, but biggest issue looked to be drivers door, which had dropped significantly. Window frames didn't look great either. Alan and I reckoned it would have been a good buy at £12K. Particularly as it's done very few miles in last...
