[QUOTE="weeboll, post: 578082, member: 14316"] some technical help please, just did a 500 mile round trip to Norfolk and back and noticed whilst there that the rev gauge was flicking upwards by 300-400 rpm when cruising along on a hot day. strange I thought so checked points and the gap had closed up, regapped and checked timing (32deg adv) and it stopped happening for a day. then on the way home for the first half hour of a four hour drive it still happened then stopped. checked points again and they are correct (0.4mm). would welcome thoughts - do I have a coil or condenser on the way out? or a duff connection somewhere? (checked) as the rev gauge runs off a signal from the coil and the points/condenser give the signal to the coil I assume its somewhere around here! thanks Ian [/QUOTE]
