What's it for out of interest?

I know you can get 6v pos earth ones for some of the classics, just never heard of 12v pos earth in cars.

Regards

Jim

It's from a Proteus C type with a 1965 3.8 Jaguar engine.

Our old 1965 mini was positive earth but we changed it to negative earth, due to the difficulty in getting positive earth electrical kit.
Quite simole to do.

gd427man got me thinking when he mentioned a Mini.  Not cheap but you can still buy positive earth pumps like these: Link (http://www.minispares.com/product/classic/AUF214EP.aspx)
