That's not cool. Hope you managed to get it all cleaned out. Did you do it yourself or take it to a mechanic, Chris?
Did it my self.
Mechanics now a days , would not recognise a "set of points".
Not hard doing mechanics, just take your time and common sense.
But like all things , you need the tools and a good relationship with a Auto Parts Supplier, on the same frequency.
Used a Toyota replacement pump and a small filter he found and good fuel hose. But have seen kits on EBay for about US$ 64.00 + p&p. Its the same kit for Triumphs , BMWs and Yamaha's , along with Toyotas , Opel , Audi, and 10 other brands or more.But there are tricks and tests you need to do.
With tools , I like to test a measuring tool against something , otherwise its just a Guess.
. And I painted all the steel with ferrous prime paint , then silver paint. I suppose U could use Galvanic Paint , but that could be highly reactive with petrol. So No to Gal Paint.
Also used a lot of Paper Towels, not Toilet paper , because that's Crap.
I use Mineral Turps and Mentholated Spirits for Cleaning.
Don't like to use Petrol , its too unprofessionally.
