Is that all?

Running like a pig!

Recently, the bug has got worse and worse performance.


I stripped the carby and rebuilt it.

Replaced condenser, points and coil (Needed doing anyway!)

Checked the leads - all sparking and good!

I took cyclinder 3&4 plugs out... Fluffy with coke!

Anyway, cleaned up, reset gap the 1&2 cylinder....

Dripping with fuel!

Uh Oh ... must be valves!

 1&2 Rocker covers taken off.... Boom!

Rockershaft, nuts and a snapped stud hit the drip pan.....

That would explain alot!

I replaced stud, checked all push rods, all fine all moving smothly.... hmmm?

I replaced the stud, checked the torque, all valves openly cleanly and smothly...

I will have to have a think but for now all replaced and gaps reset....

Running like a dream...I managed to convince the Mrs I had replced the engine for an 1800cc....HEHEHE!

Problem solved!
