Any ideas why just changing my leads could cause the idle to change significantly?
It wont stay ticking over unless i touch the throttle.
I do have an annoyingly stiff choke again, and questionable throttle linkage ( cable ties and wire holding bushes etc),
however it did idle before i replaced leads.
i've decided to go for a pertronix (not fitted) and cheap leads for the time being, magnecors will have to wait.
The old leads were very badly worn, with a couple of tears (!) in places, so has the timing been set to compensate perhaps?
Any help much appreciated!
