1982 911SC CDI troubleshooting

The book says check fuse 22 for power to my CDI module. However none of my repair manuals even show a fuse 22. Highest number is 21.
Can someone please help? Thanks.

Once again, the entire vacuum system has been checked to death. There are ZERO leaks.

Also I can't believe someone just asked if the bleeder screws are properly oriented.

About the paint.
It is original for sure. Says "Rosewood Metallic" on original window sticker. It is not that color. It more nearly matches "Wine Red" from the 928 models. Obviously special...

Interesting factory paint job on my 82 911SC ?

I've had the car for twenty years. I have painted nothing. And, judging from the perfect condition of the leather inserts between body panels there are zero signs of masking for any paint job. ...

I'm a fan of cars from the eighties. No more carburetors and no expensive "body control" modules. I can actually work on all my vehicles.

Also there is no way an air pocket inside the MC is causing this very distinct "thunking" noise.
I'm pretty sure I can tell the difference.

However there is a second part number listed on Rock Auto for a 1982 "Turbo look" 911. I have no idea what...
