hi Mark mine was doing the same thing shortly after i got it, ended up being the lock nut on the tappet adjuster had come slack. The one behind the carb is hard to get at to tighten if the carb is on the engine. Just a thought.

thank for that. We had to alter the water inlet on the manifold, a mate of mine said while he had manifold he could do what you suggested. so thanks again,

Thanks for that.
