Bad miss, wet exhaust, 5kcstq

[Wallace White]

Listers -

Well, the bad miss has gone away. I replaced the spark plugs (WR7DS
Silbers, since I couldn't find the tri-electrode W7DTC locally) and it
still was missing badly once per camshaft revolution. I finally just ran
the darn thing for long enough to really warm up, and the miss just went
away. We'll see if it returns.

I checked compression while I was at it; for the heck of it, here are
the readings:

140 psi - 130 - 128 - 133 - 133
9.8 bar - 9.2 - 9.0 - 9.7 - 9.7

The spec is 8-11 bar new, 6.5 bar wear limit. All in good order, it
appears, in spite of 167k miles (30k mine) and a previous owner who let
a lot of things slide. Thanks for the help.
