Hi
You may well be correct, but the stator plates have marks on it that tie up with the 4 deg BTDC.

I will try it Thursday evening.

Greeves, my carb has the same settings as in your post above so at least I am on the right track.

The misfire was tracked down to the coil I fitted one that I had bought (NEW) for my Sherpa before i changed to the Elextrex World setup, however It just would not run above 1/4 throttle and spluttered and popped!!!

I would have thought these coils were generic and would fit Bultaco, Ossa or Montesa.

Any way it feels smooth now.

Kind regards

Martin

Well thanks to one of our club members,(Thanks Alan) I now have another 247 Mont.This time an early Mk2,complete less the tank/seat unit.it still has the steel yokes,not had much time to check it out,but apparently it runs well,alll gears and clutch work well etc.
So, i now have everything I need to build my early MK1 up,the biggest cost I think will be paint.
Its not going to happen for a while as I have other projects in the queue,but its there in stock,ready to be done.
Trouble is I rode my "new" AJS rigid today at our Bath trial,what a bit of kit ! needs a little carb fiddling,but I can see why they were such a favourite back in the day.Even on the first ride its easier and steers better than my Ariel.such good fun the twinshock projects may have to wait awhile....
