Thanks. And how should I put the aluminium gear on the camshaft?

Thanks Allan. The kit I showed in the site is only for generator replacement. As mentioned, I already took care about the magneto last year, and would like to know if it is possible installing this electronic generating unit without changing the original ignition system. As far as I know, these are...

I can offer these: 2. Photos of 17 pages of the original Matra tool catalog, which has illustrations and descriptions of about 6 tools per page. Each page photo is about 300 KB and the set of 17 is 4.6 MB. 3. A PDF file of 51 pages of the original Matra tool catalog, which is the same as the photos ...
