Thank you

I use a vacuum gauge unit that make the tuning job a lot simple and stress free. Unfortunately tuning vacuum gauges are not available in Sri Lanka. I'm just lucky my Dad had one.

Before adjusting the carb - Clean spark plugs and adjust the gap with a gaping gauge tool refer to the maintenance manual for the gap, (you can also check on-line). check spark plug cables and make sure that they fasten well to the plugs and distributor. Also check the air cleaner and make sure there are no air leaks. Just some simple steps to begin with.

Thanks Schiffer, brilliant job. Keep up the good work .....

Something I like to share - I once repaired my radiator and had to bleed the air out of the cooling system. The plastic bleeder screw (Originally came) was too old and the white plastic faded to brown and brittle. " it snapped " with " screw head out and shaft inside" but I managed to get the screw shaft out. I went to Panchikawatta and I bought a plastic bleeder screw spending 150/=. The screw fitted I bleed the cooling system and I was happy. But not for long the screw leaked again. So I went to a local machinist and got a brass screw lathed for 250/=. It was a supper performance up grade I would say. Also to prevent overnighting the bleeder screw (plastic or brass) use a tippex or a thin felt marker and mark a line on the screw and body. and tighten it only up to the mark DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN. "prevention is better than cure"

Rain water is economical....

I wish I could get this radiator additive "Gunk C1012 Radiator Anti-Rust & Water Pump Lube" or something similar in Sri Lanka. Ideal to mix with distilled water. I better put a search.
