Hello fellow 1500 engine owners....I've got a 1980 Spitfire 1500 which uses the same engine as the later Midgets. I'm moving to California and need to re-smog my engine. My EGR valve diaphram is shot, and I'm looking for another. They don't seem to be available from any of the big parts houses. Has anyone found a replacement? Also, if someone has a good photo of the air pump mounted. It's quite the puzzle to figure out!

Thanks!

Don

Don,
I've been through this, and you engine compartment loks just like my 79 midget! For the part try https://www.usedbritishcarparts.com/ and send me your email address and exactly what pictures you need of the pump, etc, and i'll send them. CA emmissions are tough!
