Another day, another debacle...

Damian and Jason headed over to pick up Booger Mobile and take it to the carby place to be checked out.

The verdict - the carby is set up well, BM now idles perfectly, but still pings, pangs, bangs and carries on under load.  The carby bloke reckons that it is the distributor that is stuffed, having put it on their you-beaut machine and watched the timing go to crap when a few revs were put on it...  even though it's spot on when idling...  For the technically minded, the timing is advancing way too far when the vacuum advance kicks in...

Makes sense really... the distributor is LITERALLY the only part of the engine that hasn't been replaced or reconditioned...

The search begins for a replacement distributor...
