Hi, is the poppet valve part of the brass cylinder that opens and closes on the spindle? I take it I should strip down carb to do this - how can you tell if it is faulty before hand?<br>
<br>
Thanks

Hi - no other problems with running, if fact it is going the best ever in the 2 years I've owned it ( probably because of the amount of new parts put on it mind you) and that was why I was aksing before going poking around myself as I know nothing about carbs and how to set them up.<br>

Let me ...

Hi, the dash pot oil was a little low, not much and the linkages seem fine, I put some light oil on them anyway but it hasn't improved the situation. How do u check for leaks? I treid spraying WD40 on rubber mounts but it hasn't changed - what else can I try in relation to looking for leaks?<br>

hi - my experience was the voltage stabiliser - 2 years creeping along ever mindful of the temp gauge - changed everything except the voltage stabiliser as it was 'new'. Then I asked around on here and ritchie I think it was suggested putting a meter on the stabiliser - 13volts - I fitted an ...

Hi, could you please let me know you thoughts on this. Car starts OK and idles back when warm, nicely to about 800 rpm. Take the car for a drive, stop at road junction and the car is running at 1500 rpm. Back home car running high in garage about 1200 rpm but after some time idle reduces back to 800 ...

Hey George, I have heard of this happening to Sprint's in the past. How would you check if it caused damage - would a compression test be of any use?<br>
<br>
Of couse if it bent a valve then you would know right away but what if it put the debris out the exhaust valve - would you be very lucky and ...

Billy Connolly - although some new material would't go amiss.<br>
Peter Kay - good stand-up family entertainment and really good TV shows - Max and Paddy, Pheonix nights - classics of our times - almost up there with Fawlty Towers - Dad's Army!

I have to agree with the Electronic route - I worried myself grey ( no that was marriage / kids / mortage that did that) about temperature - turned out to be a duff VS. I fitted an electronic unit and no worries. Wonder can you get a VS for other things?

hi - ( first sign of madness - answering your own posts) - after some research it seems to be a slight difference in the plug operating characteristcs as regards temperature. I believe the recommended Bosch plug for a Sprint is H7DC but I can't find a reason why a H6DC would not work either.<br ...
