Went out today and have double checked everything, tried different petrol, attempted to run on just starting fluid sprayed into the intake, checked exhaust to manifold gasket, checked all other exhaust joints, checked compression, all high and within 6-7psi of each other, no plug is cleaner or dirtier than any other, all a nice tan colour, so no steam cleaning from a head gasket leak...
Attempted running coil straight from battery too, I'm absolutely stumped with this, I can't think of anything else, it runs nice and quietly but then "pop pop pop" despite everything appearing absolutely fine, valve gaps spot on too, no vacuum leaks either as I used an unlit blow lamp gas around throttle spindle, gaskets, manifold etc, I have even tried an Austin A30 carburettor zenith 26vme that I have in the garage that was working absolutely fine until last summer, and the EXACT same.
Anyone have any idea what it could be.
It's driving me mad haha
