Front towing eye ?

Hi, first time posting, but I have a C3 ( 1981, but with 79/80 carb and distributor ) with an issue.
Firstly, having broken down, the AA weren’t keen on towing me using the front eye. He was concerned it would pull ok but might give under braking? Has anyone got any experience with this ?

Dont know if I should start another thread for the actual breakdown, but it cutout, second time in two weeks, seemed to be a spark or lack of it problem. Got it going by applying pressure to the white Tach wire from the distributor. Not sure if it could have caused it to stop, but got me home.
cheers

Not sure about the towing thing but I might be able to help with the dizzy. Do you have a photo?
I was wondering if it was definitely the tach wire?
