I've been trying to locate a spare distributor and starter for my 544 that was converted to 12v. The car is presently running great, but I plan on taking a long trip next summer and would like to carry some spare direct bolt in parts.
The Dist. # is VJU 4BR20 and the Starter is a Bosch 0 001 811 108 12V.
Does anyone know where I can purchase these items, new or used are fine as long as they work. I just purchased a 6v starter for emergency use, but the 12V would be even better to have available. Also, is the Distributor possibly from a B18 or B20 engine?
I did some google searches for the starter and could not find where to buy one, but I did find that there is a high torque starter for a Saab that replaces this starter. I would prefer to buy just a good used replacement starter.
Also for those of you who are converting from 6V to 12V, this starter is working great in my converted car, but I really don't know what the previous did with the conversion to make it work or is it a direct bolt in. Anyways, any help will be greatly appreciated.
