Can someone please explain to me WHY my daughters A40 just refuses to start when it's cold? This Fall she did buy her own Mitchibitchi but already sold it because she learned herself that Jap cars .

I don't know what it is, but it sounds like the same problem I'm having with my Bugeye (1275 low compression engine Hs2's). I've tried all the things you guys suggested last week, thanks for the hel

Try an MSD ignition box and coil, if you problem is spark related... it will cure it. Three BIG sparks in the same place and time as one, MSD also has a 15 degree spark retard at startup that may al

Sometimes even the pro's overlook the basic ones. Here are some to check. Will the car start when cold right away on starting fluid? If so the weber still might not be jetted rich enough to start. Th

Hi frank, Check the mechanical advance mechanism in the dizzy to see if it is stuck in the fully advanced position. Merry Christmas, CR

With all of this talk about dizzys, mine has no vacuum advance (just mechanical). Is there anything that these are more likely to have problems with than the vacuum advance kind? Ryan ______________

With a DCOE correctly calibrated it doesn't take long to wet the plugs if the ignition system is such that the engine doesn't fire. I think you will find that fuel does not evaporate from a DCOE flo

I have a 1275 from a 1974 Midget that is completely stock (as far as I know) in my Bugeye. I don't know if this was the original dizzy the engine came with or not. According to my Haynes the 1275 ca

Yes. It is a 25D and it should be connected to the carbs. A 23D has no "tin mans hat" The vacuum from accelerating draws the advance mechanism further thus advancing the timing to the load of the eng
