Sorry about two # 7's. Pick yous test hill so you can make her smok=
e at full pedal. If she does not smoke at full power. Turn fueling screw in=
a quarter turn. If you can make her smoke but she has no poop, give her =
the bottle. Use heavy single grade lube oil and diesel mix. If you get l=
ots of power and you are able to back off on fueling screw for little smoke=
and power is still there . The problem is the internal timing mechanism. L=
ikely worn vane pump and or timing piston. In that case the choice is repla=
ce pump (my choice) or send away for overhaul (very expensive). If you are=
lucky and all the problem was pump adjustments. Finish these settings and =
move on to turning the pump. We will deal with that in # 9.
For those of you who still have problems tell us in the forum and we can de=
al with it all together.
This looks difficult and complicated at first ---- really, it is a piec=
e of cake and a lot of fun. Hagar.
PS: use special 9 point 13 mm wrench on fueling locknut and screwdriver or =
craftsman ignition wrench on screw. Use your imagination to make it easy to=
do on roadside. Hagar.
