it was running really rough out the tail pipe, so i turned the dizzy on direction as far as it could go and it started running a bit smoother but the only problem is now the vowels are pinging. so i turned it back a tad so the vowelsdon't ping, it's running heaps better (still missing and putting a wee bit) any think else i can play with! Air on the carb!. Have replaced dizzy cap and rotor and plugs. Do you think it might be worth doing the leads!. Any help would be great!. Thanks

Anyway im guessing its a "Y'' series, motor they can develop an air leak into the gallery for the idle circuit in the base plate of the carb. This can be tested by CAREFULLY spraying the base of the with brakeclean or similar with the motor idling. What actually leaks is the gasket between the body and lower plate of the carb not the gasket under the carb. It sucks into the throtle bore. This usually shows up as a rough idle or no idle.It will rev up a little if you spay at the throtle shaft ends. try that.

Also done a few with leaking intake manifold gaskets, so spray around there also.
