It seems that as long as I've had my '53 TD the spark plugs have fouled on a regular basis. Last summer I had the carbs professionally rebuilt and adjusted and expected that to solve the problem. But

Non of that matters. The main problem is fuel and air distribution. There is no way on earth that you can balance the correct amount of air and fuel flow. I found this to be an impossible task - esp

If it is a 1953, and if the cylinder head has not been replaced by one from an earlier TD (or TC or TB), then you're using the wrong spark plug. The late TD/TF head requires a plug with a 3/4 inch t

Early 1/2" reach plug heads take L series Champion plugs and are ientified by the number 22952 ( as I recall ) cast into the front right top corner of the head. Late heads use 3/4" N series Champion

A few things spring to mind - 1 Is your cylinder head a later one that needs 3/4 in reach plugs not the 1/2 inch of the L82xx plugs? 2 Though the carbs have been rebuilt, did you just bolt them on a

Oops, it looks like I misspoke on the spark plug type. The L82YC are what was in the car when I first got it, and are the wrong type since I do have the later head that requires the 3/4" reach plugs.

Hi Nels Champion N5's are probably way to hard which would explain your fouling. I would suggest you change to N12's for a test and if these are too soft go to N9,s which is what MGB:s are using. Bes

Take the cap off, grab the dizzy shaft and give it a shake. If it moves it's time for a re-build. The case it pot metal, which over time will have an oval pattern on it when it turns which will cause
