- Throw on a new condensor. Start with the easiest things first. I run a Mallory on my TR6 and when it starts missing or backfiring I swap condensors and my problems go away. Walt Abq., NM --Original M

- In the first place, NEVER run emory cloth through points. If you have a diamond point file then you can dress them carefully, but emory cloth just rounds the edges and reduces the contact area. I don
