Timing out 180 degrease?

Lead? Swap the lead with one of the others that are working to see if its a dud lead or not. Whatever you do make only one change at a time so you know exactly what is not right.

Well after new dizzy cap, rotor, coil, plugs it now seems to be a dropped valve all this in prep for the couple of thousand miles for Narranderra!!! Hope this will be fixed in time to load up and have the wife and family happy that we'll get there and back!
Cheers for your thoughts
