Twiddling The Distributor

There wasn't too much time available this weekend for a great deal of playtime with the Beast. I took it out of the garage to make some room for a clear out and had no real intentions to mess at all. But, after revving a few times and shooting even more flames up the road, I decided to have a bit of a play with the carbs - armed with a screwdriver and a bad printout off the interwebnet. I looked at the SUs, had a cup of tea, looked at them again, gave up and then undid the nut holding the disributor in place. A twiddle to the left later and things sound much better! A quick run up R Road was completed without a splutter nor backfire. Groovy! Although between last weekend and this, the fans have decided to stop. Ungroovy!

Another Update

It's still in the garage. It still don't run properly. I still can't be arsed. The 75's doors are still broken. And now so is the tumble dryer. Summer 2011 at this rate.
