looks good for the price.
Not fitting in all cases.
There are also some Murena's with Lucas watherbottles.
For the Peugeot/fiat type its OK.

Not as good as your tips, but possibly helpful nonetheless. I wanted to replace the windscreen washer pump because the old one was barely building up any pressure. I was about to order one for £36 when I stumbled across this one, RIDEX 794W0002, for £9.95 including postage.

But what's more interesting is:

    ALFA ROMEO 5882292
    ALFA ROMEO 71711241
    CITROËN 643467
    FIAT 5882292
    FIAT 71711241
    LANCIA 5882292
    LANCIA 71711241
    PEUGEOT 643467

If this is already known, please simply delete it.

Quick feedback. I ordered the tail gas lifters mentioned above in France. The delivery costs of 18 euros were almost as expensive as the parts themselves. But overall, the price was still reasonable for me. They have electrical connections, are rated at 200 Nm and work perfectly.

I can find a lot of old talk about this but nothing recent. 
Are there any alternative to Simon at ~15Euro for a kit of seals.

Yes, it drives great. Minor issues, but these are solved one by one.

Great to hear!

The engine idles somewhere around 750/800 rpm. Needs a bit of warming up, but once once warm it runs very good. Shifting is getting better and better, due to replacing the last weared parts. The electric fuel pump is making some buzzing noise, I have to sort that out also. Maybe a build in one in the tank.

I am using a Hüco membrane pump. It's very quiet. There are other, better quality pumps on the market, which are also quiet. Let me know if you want info on my installation.

I just recived some new parts for the ignition project. If i'm not mistaken this ecu doesn't need a cam sensor. It's an old Bosch L-Jetronic, as used on the Peugeot 2.2 GTI. The crank sensor is no problem, that's mounted allready. But even this is not in the wiring schedule. I belive it's working with the pulses of the ignition. I have to figure all of this out. Nice winter job!

The crank sensor mounted on the engine will not work as it is an open coil with ferrite core only. Proper cam sensors includes a permanent magnet to create a magnetic field which induces a current as the two cutouts in the flywheel pass by. The sensor was installed on the 2.2 engines to facilitate some unknown diagnostic equipment and perhaps used in the factory to set up the engines. I have designed and built a unit that uses it (I will post a description of it here on the forum soon), but it took a lot of work and a bit of trickery to get the sensor to produce a signal. In any case, that sensor will only be suitable for diagnostic purposes with special equipment. 

So I'm certain your Bosch ECU will not be able to use that. However, I think you might be able to use the distributor pickup if you lock the distributor advance. I'm guessing here based on some info I just googled up, so I may be wrong about that part... :)
