Hi Fred, Thanks for that. I have tried increasing the initial, but it just results in difficult starting and stress on the starter and a desire to keep running when switching off. It also was no as smooth at low revs with a more davanced initial. Although with more advance I would get better vacuum, but I can live with reduced vacuum. I'm not sure about the vacuum, you read so many conflicting reports. I can decide on that during further road tests. I will experiment with slightly weaker springs, but it seems the springs get weaker the whole mechanism gets sloppy.
Oh what a voyage of discovery!!
Nick
