Any Update on Hally ?

[RS2000CUSTOM]

His car developed a missfire under load on the way from Brook Meadow to Northampton RSOC show

He made his way in the afternoon to Stanford Hall

Between Oggy, Bob and myself he had new plugs, points, condensor, dizzy cap, rotor, coil and plug leads fitted.

Still not cured

Revs lovely in neutral

Try and drive and missfires under load

He was going to "limp" home as he has no recovery cover

Has anyone seen him ?

[paul spence]

Hope its not as bad as my missfire last week....

I have a faulty cosworth oil pump which caused number 4 big end to go.

Felt like an electrical missfire and ran smooth at idle....

Mine is looking like a 1500 quid rebuild

[hally]

nice one dingy i love to be cheered up!

[hally]

no GJ still not got to the bottom of it!

An invoice for £50 diagnosis is in the post

I didnt manage to determine the cause (oil pump) but was too deep a noise to be top end IMHO

Hope you get sorted soon

Is it just a set of shells or has it marked the journal ?

[Dingy]

crank is ok but engine needs a refresh, getting a bit worn out
