Careful using the strobe light Bazza. You know what happened last time you saw it flash - you came over all "John Travolta" like in the middle of the high street but instead of your jacket spinning round your head was your 3 day old "Y" Fronts!
No I didn’t go fishing it all went tits up, the wife was taken into hospital she’s better now and should be out today,
Way back, my trusty mutt was sitting watching me fit my old Pertronix. I'd got the ignition timing hopelessly wrong, and the van let out the mother of all backfires. Surprising how fast a border collie can move. I reckon she did 0 - 60mph in about 3 seconds. You can still see her claw marks in the tarmac...
Did that with a rusty EMPI exhaust but no dog.. but about a second later I heard a "ting" noise as a bit of silencer landed. Never did find it. But there was a 10cm square hole in the silencer that was not there before.
@Barry Haynes Hi did you ever get this fixed? as I'm now having the same problem, drove great to the MOT then ran awful on the way home fuel all over the carb on no 3 cylinder, would like to get it fixed so I can attempt to get to techenders
It was recommended that I set them at 7mm but it still backfired so I set them at 9mm and it ran as sweet as a nut
