Dear Bill Head
and all members , what a lovely article " the Lumpy Pot " and so humerously written in the recent Flat Out mag no.169.
I get my copy sent out to Portugal , so im probably a bit late in replying but my first observation of the weak cylinder in the 2 cv engine was that no mention of testing the spark plugs as a first solution , or of just substituting for others.
First i thought of a rat or a mouse stuck up one exhaust pipe , but that would begin to smell awful ! Lastly i thought of the leads themselves having poor connections. Maybe even part of the coil ? I like the dragonfly prize sculpture and hope it goes to a good home .
Still very good touring weather here in Portugals sunny Algarve . I dont know why more members dont move over . I found out that there are only 4 Lomaxes in the whole of Portugal . The 3 wheel variety dont need An MOT, as yet .
Regards Aidan
