Re: [T3] strange clunking from final drive and ignition timing,


<x-charset iso-8859-1>
Sorry Jim, its a twin carb- I am having great difficulty sorting them out as
well- can't seem to balance them or tune them properly because the engine
misfires at idle too much (plus the wrong advance setting) at the moment I
am getting a pitiful 15MPG (UK G!). I think the engine could do with at
least a heads off overhaul and I'm certain that I should take a good look at
the carbs, but its cold and wet outside and I was hoping I could make do
till next spring/summer- maybe not. To top it all off the FM on my radio
stopped working so now I've only got radio 4 to listen to (not that bad but
can get a bit too serious!) At least the heater works well. (it was the
first thing I fixed! UK priorities) You'll be pleased to know that I still
love it though. I'll crawl under there tonight and check the CV joint bolts.
Cheers
