Gidday Shannon,
You are correct in that one engine the points were stuck, i used a light machine oil and a wiggle of the points they freed immediatley. I had a 1967 Holden premier with a larger version of the same points, so I know what you talking about here.
I will test the Lazair tommorrow, first by changing the tach over to the other side if that doesn't work then change the spark plugs, then if that dosn't work the motor comes off and I start to play with points,ignition, leads.
Any tips about getting the grease on the points without pulling the motor off ? I hate those stud nuts.
I have just retourqued the heads and was surprised how much the nuts turned so I think a little air suck could have been going on as well, I have new sets of seals coming so I will address each issue as it arises.
Anyway a preveiw of the lazair is all I can offer, I should do some taxi work tommorrow, I'll post a movie if this site uploads it.
