Rick,
I'm sure we all saw the question but as to work out the problem over the
list ....? Maybe a bit more info will help, you never know. (:- Don't take
this personally but your problem description reminds me of how my mother
rings me up occasionally and says "the Bluebird is making a funny noise -
what do you think could be wrong with it?" We normally work through the
problem with the following approach.
Now correct me if I've got any info wrong;
Yours is a wagon with an original L16 so you've got a Hitachi single points
dizzy.
Has the ignition system been modified in any way? coil, ballast resister etc
leads?
The problem only happens at wot at 3600 rpm? splutters past 3600rpm and
pulls to 6000 rpm normally?
Does this problem happen in all gears at wot?
Does hot or cold ambient temperature make any difference to the problem?
what happens if say you use 1/2 throttle to 4000 rpm in 3rd (problem not
evident) and at 4000 rpm you floor it - does it rev through to 6000 rpm
without any sign of the problem?
regards
Terry

Subject: hi there did anyone get my last email about engine problems??
I was just wondering because no one answered to my problem in my 1600.
Maybee I didn't write it properly and it never got there.
anyhow it whent something like this.
I have had wot I thought was a flat spot in my carby for a long time now.
But I just fitted a larger(better tacho) and now I am able to see the
problem right there in front of me.
The problem seems to be something to do with dissy??
The tacho kinda shuts down as the engine does it's normal shutdown at 3200
revs just for a second.
I hope someone out there has an idea on wot the problem may be and how to
fix it.
Thanks in advance.
Bye for now.
Rick White.
