Does anybody read this stuff, and are you interested in the continuing saga ?

Yawn

Borrow / buy a coil and eliminate the cheap fix first.

Hi Stort Interested to know what difference resistor plugs/caps make . Thanks Ross

Consider it done, and enjoy your weekend Ross

Thanks Jon Opens fine, have saved to "Favorites" as I am about to head off to Kinlochleven. Weather's looking fine at the moment, fingers crossed. Ross

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

Hi Jon What side valves did you race ? Harley Davidson ? Ross

I have no complaints with Jitsie "blue carbon" gloves. About 6 months old and as good as new. Sizes seem a bit on the small side.

If its touching the frame / engine at any point (where it should'nt) you could well get a rattle.

Always start with the last thing you did to the bike, when trying to isolate a problem !

Hi craig10, he lives out Currie / Balerno way ? There are posts re pattern replacement quadrants, some aren't accurate and can also cause selection problems. Ross

I'm told to run IRC's approx 1lbs more than normal to stop excess movement.

ATF for 15 + years.

Thanks Matchlessman, also just replaced the coil & HT lead. Couldnt get NGK 4's anywhere so have ended up with Champions equivalent. 29th & 30th should be a reasonable test !

Heavy duty is wider, try a standard 428 before any major modifications.

Quadrant can go in either way to give 1 up, or 1 down. The plungers may need adjusting to help cure jumping out of gear, I set mine up out of the bike. Rupert Ratio ISBN 0-9535098-1-8
