![]() ![]() I've also posted this issue on the Dutch mini forum, but I thought I'd get some extra input. ![]() Compression is the same on all cylinders, and they all fire properly. I've had contact with Cooperman on this forum, he suggested there might have been an issue with the weights in the dizzy not moving freely, this is not the case, the dizzy was compared at a garage next to a brand new one, there was no difference in play on the shaft or weights coming loose or not. Bought new Spark plugs, leads, rotor, dizzy cap. I've checked mixture (by checking spark plugs) and it seems to be ok, not far out in any case. As the mark does seem to stay in one place 60-70% of the time, I set the timing at 5 deg BTDC, but it you can clearly hear the engine not running as smooth as it should, even though the cam is standard and whatnot. Because the timing mark doesn't seem to wanting to stay in one place once hit with the strobe, I can only make a somewhat estimate timing. To make sure I'm not screwing things up: I got the engine up to temperature (thermostat opened) Increased idle speed to 1500 rpm Choke was closed Vacuum advance was pulled off Strobe was hooked up to spark plug 1. Hi Folks, I'm trying to get my engine set-up properly but the timing mark on the crank pulley wont stay in 1 place with the strobe, it's like 60-70% of the time exactly still on a timing mark, and then just goes either far out top or bottom.
