Hi,
Its been a while, more a tribute to my trusty steed than anything else!
But obviously, I am now here and in need your esteemed help.
All of a sudden the motor has developed a problem which has me preplexed, it starts ok but won't fire on all cylinders for some time until it gets warm, it's blowing out some black smoke during this 'mis-fireing' also. When it gets hot it runs fine. Plugs are getting sooty, not oily, changed coil, leads, plugs and adjusted mixture to lean it. Carb cleaned, everything looks fine.
Valves were recently adjusted, maybe some issue there?
Any ideas guys?
