| Continued Remarks. Engine. Throughout the tour engine ran very well with exception of two breakages of contact maker springs Lost pin out of slow speed jet control Exhaust pipe nuts worked loose Throttle jambed occasionally by dust & accelerator pedal worked stiff (this had no connection with throttle) Battery ignition faulty (misfires badly) suspect coil or wiring. When warm engine very fast & powerful quick to pick up & good on hills. rather difficult to start when cold. Clutch Coupling. A ring in it as if something loose inside Clutch Very good indeed. | ||
