I wanted to make my 126 look a bit different....
I considered these on ebay and asked the seller if he could change the script to "FIAT 126", but in the same font as "ABARTH"
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/334946158241
Very helpful seller - he just charged me the same price as advertised and seemed quite keen to quote for any one-off designs

I initially didn't think it was the ignition coil that was causing the problem. It is relatively new. I changed it when the car was getting restored in 2016.
Many thanks for your advises.

I find it easier to pull or prise the bottom of the shoe over the bottom stop then it releases the tension on the spring. I do the opposite to fit them ...anchor the springs put one shoe in place the prise the other over the stop plate, make use of the shoe as a lever I've never had any problems doing it that way....trying to hook the spring on when the shoes are in place....get some plasters ready...!!
