Is there a version of the colortune that will fit a sprint?
I have seen the motorcycle version which has a 10mm fitting which looks like it may do the job.

Just went and checked, I'm using the Gunson G4074 - 14mm. I know that for a fact as the box is all tatty from plenty of use whilst my motorbikes 12mm one is pristine still!
As I recall I had to use the long centre electrode extender to screw it in slightly before getting a plug socket on it, and that the head tube is that long the supplied plastic mirror didn't work as intended so had to improvise.

There are 2 versions of Colourtune around.
The large original one was supplied until about 1990 when the smaller version appeared and was advertised as being " Now suitable for the Dolomite Sprint and Vauxhall Firenza " I think it was.
I imagine Alan has the larger one.
