Having changed out my worn out DK4A for a refurbished one courtesy of my brother Pete, went out today to fine tune the timing.
All seems ok except she keeps cutting out when coming to a stop, not sure if that is a distributor or a carb issue, I have had this problem before with the dodgy dizzy
However the point of the post is that having cut out at a rather busy double mini roundabout junction, the starter motor jammed (first time ever) and I had to push Ruby to one side to allow the traffic to pass, no more than a minute or two. Having got her to one side, a quick turn of the starting handle released everything and was able to start her up again, however I was so pleased to hear the encouragement from the public ………..
“Get that f***ing s**t off the road”
Truly heartwarming.
