What have you done today with your Austin Seven
Today I solved what had become a chronic misfire on the RP!  Compression test showed 8.2 bar on all except no.2 which was 0.2 bar. Suspecting inlet valve  no.2, removing the valve chest cover revealed rather an excessively wide gap - 0.250" instead of 0.006"! I've never seen one as big as that before!!
No wonder the valve wasn't opening.
Just glad I didn't dive in and remove the head first!
