General question

[Orin B. Harding]

I'm also new to the list and have almost the same questions for the others on the site.
I have attempted to install a Bosch LU Jetronic system on a MGB ('79) and found that while it would run OK when warm, I never could get it to cold idle well.  I finally have given up on this and am going to install the Electromotive TEC II system.

I talked to Haltec and I felt that they were not very, how should I say it, "friendly"..A real turn off over the phone..They may have a great system, but don't know how to deal with the public.  Electromotive was helpful and I really like the direct fire ignition feature included in the TEC II for about the same cost as the Haltec F8.
