Thank you to all for your replies, I shall continue as I always have done then by starting at TDC.
By ear it sounds at it's happiest at very slightly retarded from this position and as Bob suggests when I test
it for pinking up a slight gradient in top she doesn't pink.
However, she does tickover a bit too fast for my liking at this point, and even by playing with the mixture screw
on the carb and the timing position , I still can't slow it down to where I'd like it to be.
The throttle screw is obviously turned right back and I even tried it with the throttle linkage disconnected, butÂ
I still don't seem to be able to slow it down the small amount I think it needs.
Any suggestions would obviously be very gratefully received or maybe I just have to live with a slightly fast tickover!
Thank you once again
Graham.
