  2. How many pre 65's are entered ?
  3. worth checking that the pivot points for the points and advance retard are greased.
  4. I would drain carb, and change the plug. After that try another coil if you can borrow one.

    Eating Plugs

    Thanks to everyone who contributed. I have now done 2 club trials and the pre 65 2 day - all on 1 plug. A BPR5ES. I did get a supply of BP4ES (equivalent) plugs but never had to use them, as I try only to change one thing at a time. The solution, as jon v8 suggested, was ignition - new coil and HT lead. Now runs really well, and the carb adjusters from Billet Parts makes it so much easier. Thanks again Ross
  7. Yes,see you there, new venue for me, any good ?
  8. Hi Davie Needle valve not seating / damaged ? Ross
  9. Advertise a reward for return on gumtree, its where all the thieves hang out.
  10. confused no more, thought it was a Vic Reeves / Mortimer moment !
  11. I'm confused by the can of chives !
  12. Almost the same, apart from the flywheel off and sheared woodruff key, and seized, forks and shock leaking. But they didn't set on fire, which the really helpful Police man had prophesied. Thanks for asking Ross
  13. Just a little back ground. Recovered through an advert on gumtree, Police not interested enough to accompany when I went to get it. Complaint to chief constable and my MP (Alister f**king Darling) not really made any difference. Eventually the guy I got if back from was arrested and charged, I went to court on the 22nd April as a witness, accused failed to show up and there is now a warrant for his arrest. And so it goes on, and on. Thanks for asking. Ross
  14. Does anybody read this stuff, and are you interested in the continuing saga ?
  15. Borrow / buy a coil and eliminate the cheap fix first.

  20. Hi Jon I was surprised to read about racing side valves as I had been lead to believe that they were more of an industrial engine. Whar are the limiting factors of S/V engines ? Ross
  21. Hi Jon What side valves did you race ? Harley Davidson ? Ross
