Is the tach drive in a BN1 also on the driver's side (LHD car) on the side=
of the block under the exhaust?

In a four-cylinder engine in the BN2 the tach drive is located on the drive=

Ah, yeah, now I remember having to route the OP line across the scuttle. Bu=
t, the tach drive is off the distributor, on the R/H side, no? I replaced t=

Tappet cover, IIRC, is on the L/H side; that was my first guess since the o=

ter the rebuild that one of the tappet cover screws has to be shorter, lest=

Any guesses?
