Hi Roo, it you're happy with it, where did you buy it from?

Laverdaroo:
This chap Simon, he’s a one man band running out of his house and extensive garage lock up. Top bloke, I get all my throttle cable kits n stuff from him. Get some rough measurements with a bit of string so you know total length and bell him and explain what you’re doing and he’ll suggest the best of what he has.

He’s a really nice bloke and super helpful. Mention you’re from the forum, not for me but if we use him we should tell him where we’re from and then eventually we might get better prices? Maybe? Doesn’t hurt. He’s not dear anyway but yer know


See how you get on Dave…..

Hi all,

Really struggling with points adjustments.

I've followed few videos but I can't seem to get the points to close at the F marks. 

I'm using a multimeter to check continuity, and for example the 1/4 point is closed until just after these two marks.

When reaching the F mark point is now open when it should be closing?

I set the airgap using a 0.3mm shim by going to 1/4F mark and rotating 90deg unitl I see this tang.

Could the advancer mech be the wrong way around? It is something I checked on here previously to make sure I had it right way around.
