These fellas:
Also, is it possible to ID My dizzy from this shot? I wouldn't suppose it is so how do I ID it? All we know is it's a Lucas on a 1275 A+ block.

What year is the car/engine
Is there a black box on the side of the dizzy??

Screws normally come with new caps - not sure on their size

We can... But we need more info

That is a problem. The car is '76 estate with an A+ engine - no engine numbers at all. No black box.
With the screw cap I think it is a 65DM4

Cheers Graeme, I just need replacement screws though a replacement cap wouldn't break the bank, just need to find out which dizzy it actually is...

I think that is a "side entry" cap, for a 45D Dizzy, and I think the screws are captive in the cap?

The 45d Distributor body is not normally drilled and tapped for a screw on cap? standard they use spring clips. The same for the 59D and even the ducellier had clips standard. the only one i have seen is the same as Graeme said, the 65D4M which had the module on the side from about 1990 on the A+? odd one?
Can you get a better picture ? maybe with the cap off.
