With the continuing saga of my mystery misfire still ongoing and unsolved, I decided to buy an electronic ignition kit to replace the points. Nice and easy to fit, started it up and hey presto! Both cylinders singing in perfect unison!
Thought I had better check the timing (it suggests you do). It was spot on with the points fitted.
Am I correct, there is now no way of doing a static check?
I connected my strobe and it is way, way advanced. So far, that it is beyond the adjustment range of the dizzy. I removed the dizzy, replacing it one tooth further round. The timing is perfect, but the car hardly runs. If I advance the dizzy, the car revs up and runs smoother.
My marks on the pulley are in the right place, of that I am certain. What on earth is going on?
Over to you!
