Surely the octane rating of the fuel has an effect on the timing?<br>
<br>
Mine runs better on normal unleaded than it does on super unleaded, but i am sure if i played around with the timing i could get it to run smoother.<br>

As for your original question, I would imagine any work on the head ...

Re: hmm
The issues with Jeffs windscreen were due to an excessively large amount of silicone sealant having been splodged there to fit the last screen, compounded by the fact that Winns appear to have supplied him the wrong rubber.

Cancel the above, the badge holders that I thought I had have sprouted legs and marched off into the sunset. The new ones I have managed to procure are 75mmx40mm.
