Many thanks!

Hi

has anyone got fitting instructions for a brake servo please? Am happy to download

Thanks

Liz

We have lift off - many thanks for all the help and advice. We think possibly old distributer cap was the fault and then when Steve replaced leads didn't do them in right order? Anyway - we will see how she behaves over the next few days. Once again thankyou

Oh yes - took rocker off!

That is what we're wondering as nothing has been touched previous. The last work done to her was wiring in some spot lamps and changed the dynamo for an alternator

What now please?

When the number 1 valves are going up and down the rotor arm points to number 3 terminal, not number 4.

When changing the cap I did the leads one at a time so should be correct but will double check tomorrow. Re pipe from breather - I have a little brass pipe which I don't have connected to anything - never have had

Plug leads are numbered so no mix up. Will try the advice re testing the plugs out of socket tomorrow and be back in touch

Plugs are Bosch

Do you know of a way/method of testing electronic ignition please?

just checked - rockers are going up and down.
What is most likely to cause the weak spark please?

many thanks for your suggestions - here's an update; just to be sure, replaced distributer cap cover, rotor arm, coil and king lead with spares. Each plug tested and has a spark. At this point still no ignition. Put petrol in through air intake and still no ignition. Plugs wet with petrol. The only ...

We have electronic ignition so no condenser
The plugs are bone dry and the correct colour

The float moves easily but because it is situated under the carb I cannot see easily if the valve is moving. I just assumed because of the float moving that the valve would be?

Will check for spark tomorrow - thanks - if plugs had no spark I would have expected them to be a bit damp with petrol after turning the engine... mmmm
Re head gasket - would I not have had some tell tale signs before that it was going?

There is petrol in the float chamber and there is ticking from the pump - the pump is definitely working ok

Hi can we have some suggestions please as we're a bit 'befuddled'. I was driving Poppy yesterday when I turned a corner to go up hill and she coughed, spluttered and then stopped ---and hasn't started since :( She is fitted with a HIFF44 carb. The plugs are bone dry ie not flooded and therefore this...

Ok-will look at the weekend. Ofsted have come calling so all things postponed

Yes-it turns at both ends but will need to check again re drive gear
