My Dad had the normal version for years. I always used it as a spare to get into London if my bike was not working. It was thrashed to death by me and I don't think we ever serviced it. Just topped the oil up .
Ideally, that's what I'm looking for it to do, but it has had a bodger for a previous owner, so currently runs like plop; points gaps are different, timing is off and the plugs were ancient.It currently only runs on one cylinder at idle and vibrates like a... well, a vibratey thing...

That's a starter, thanks, but I still need the points gap/dwell angle to get it to run properly.Toyowner said:
Looong time since I worked on this type of stuff, but I think there should be a timing mark on the flywheel or genny somewhere. I would guestimate the points gap to about 12/14 thou as a starting point. Plug gap about 25 thou or leave as out of box.
Thou?I've only ever worked in metric...
