 Re: What did you do with your A Series today? Finally got round to sorting my timing and re-setting the points gap after the nulon had worn in  Noticed my points were looking pretty black/scorched already - that normal after only about 300 miles?

Re: What did you do with your A Series today? could be if there is lots of blowby as it exits via the breather and the scroll on the front of the camshaft
any signs of arking and corresponding faltering idle?

Re: What did you do with your A Series today? Yes to the faltering idle, bit only occasional arcing. See for yourself! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ev310IT ... ata_player

Re: What did you do with your A Series today? Used the van as a workbench, coffee table and bunny food store today.
Tomorrow it'll be used for several full to the brim tip runs.
