Today I thought I would see if I could tune the engine and sort out the carburetor linkage, the choke did not seem to go fully back into position after use and turned out to have part of the linkage bent. Next I had a go at tuning it and after setting the timing at 8 dbtdc as that gave the smoothest running I then messed with the carb and it appears to be a little smoother on a test run and fires up straight away so hopefully it should be easier to start in the mornings.
Only problem I've got is when I put the pipe on the connection in the following photo it restricts air flow and stalls so left it off temporarily bt don't want to eave it like that as I'm assuming it should be drawing air via the filter.
