For some reason I'm missing large portions of this list.Many posts do not show up.I'm been trying to follow it at type3.org but it's slow.As a result,I have not seen any replies to posts.Sorry to all. Anyhoo,.. Jim,I saw your reply to my post about the recalibration. AFAIK,Heather is a stock 1969 D-Jet.Some PO has removed the cold start stuff ,(valve,relay,etc) but aside from some taped off wiring,seems complete. I followed the values that are listed on the page for 0 280 100 049 MPS. That #,though not stock,is what was installed on the car when I got it. It ran fine before so I used those values as a start.It got me in the ballpark. It is stated there that an eight of a turn makes huge changes,You can take that as gospel! When it would start,I tweaked it,by ear at 2500rpm,to smoothest running.After a very small amount of back and forth adjustment,I think I hit a "best as I'm gonna get without a CO2 measurement" point and used cyanoacrylate to lock it in.Been running like a little bear ever since. As far as the dizzy,you are correct,it is AXIAL play.(I always confuse the two.) Just shims to adjust,isn't it? "Dont'cha love it when a plan comes together?" David V.
