Thanks Spen, spark looked pretty good, and definitely felt quite strong when I applied the "turn over engine with fingers in vicinity of electrodes" technique. I'm off to Jerez tomorrow, so won't be able to try anything else until next week. I'll ask the owner to get a new spark plug and, if you don't mind, I might pick your brains next week. My main worry was that the feeling of hydraulic lock might be a problem. |
