There was a plastic square water shield that went between the distributor and the grill. The rubber gaiters were an aftermarket part. Very useful on off road vehicles. The Chinese never made any ignition systems for the mini minors. If they did , they might have worked better. Lucas made the ignitions.

Ah, Lucas, the prince of darkness!

Way back when, this was the Lucas Achilles heel...☹️

To be quite honest, that phrase was known because of my families (& my) like of Triumph motorbikes.

The computer we're using has maybe taiwanese parts, or maybe it is assembled in China but it is not from a Chinese company. 

 

 

 

Unless it is a Lenovo.....

Who buys lenovo anyway? We didn't forget their pre-installed backdoor software that came with brand new lenovo laptops a few years ago.

 

I can't say for sure where lenovo is produced but biggest laptop producing factory is in taiwan and they are manufacturing for so many brands.

 

Good luck to people who are willing to risk their life with chinese branded cars.

Well, well, well... Don't forget that Apple items (which are all  made in China) have also pre-installed backdoor for FBI !

 

And what you think is made in Taiwan is most of the time made in China in fact.. and the geography does not impact quality at all today.. China now have the best factories of the world.

Do you know difference between assembled in China by foreign brands who support their products / vehicles and produces products that are safe and regulated by their own brand's laws and so-called Chinese companies' unsafe, lower quality products?

 

They are not same. We all know large multinational corporations have factories in china, but they still answer to rule of law, not chinese communist party of China.

 

You claim iPhones are made in China, they are not made but assembled and most important parts are not chinese made. However Lenovo phones are made in China and we all know how good are they in terms of quality!

Please stay on topic and the topic isn't about Chinese manufacturing.
