I've pretty much eliminated the ignition as a factor in the wierd Colortune readings. I have a Pertronix electronic ignition replacing the points--dwell set by the electronics in the Hall-effect swi

That "reformulated" gasoline that I wrote about is, unfortunately, not limited to CA. We have the stuff here in CT and in a number of other states. The GOF where I heard about the gas and its effect

Even so, with a color tune it is often difficult to nail the mixture exactly, in that it may be too rich at idle but too lean at speed. In general I find that, at least on a TD and an A, one needs to

Hi All, What cylinders do you use when setting the dual SU carbs with the Colortune? Or does it even matter - i.e. do you see any difference between cylinders 1 and 2? Thanks, Rich 1970 MGB

Hi Ray Wygonik!! Ray, a HEX-HEAD nut, or bolt, has six flat sides, hence six flats to go full circle (one turn). One turn is a coarse adjustment, while one flat, or 1/2 flat is a fine adjustment. TTU
