Thanks Gerry, this looks like the one, ive been searching for so long, you are a star.

Does this match up with any US ser no i.e. 5974683 model so i can use date from my SELOC manual?

thanks again

J;

Not too sure what you are referring to but the 5974683 comes up as the same parts page as your s/n 92762800.

First thing I would do is chuck that Seloc piece of crap in the dustbin.

Here is a link to a 70 3 cyl. service manual which is later than yours but it may provide whatever you are looking for.
