Just checking before I have to trace it out myself. Would be useful as a sanity check.

If you find one, please post a link to it. I was looking for a schematic several months ago for the late style RVI tachs (single transistor) and couldn't find anyone who had one.

Sorry I didn't see this earlier.

There are schematics for the RV1 1433 and 1419 in Rick Astley's very good book, "MGB Electrical Systems: The Essential Manual." Much of the info in this book is relevant to Spridgets, MGAs, and so on--no great surprise. A little hard to obtain; I think I got mine from Amazon, but I had to wait a while for it.

I left a copy of the 1433 schematic in the other thread. Anyone wants the schematic for the 1419, let me know and I'll scan it too.

I'd like copies of both schematics since you were kind enough to offer.
