More than likely the advance mechanism in the dizzy has had it, as you say it's 35 yo.
Time to get thee a Pulsar dizzy... cheaper & better than fixing the old Lucarse!
ps. worn needle will make it rich, less likely to ping..

Having pinging problems with my van. I've change the plugs leads, dizzy cap, I left the points cause they looked fine, but still might replace them and the condensor. The problem is it's pinging at higher revs (well high revs for a 35 y/o stocko 1100). The problem is inconsistant, but more often than not the problem is there. If the problem is there, it varies from undrivable to almost nonexistant. So... I was thinking it could be that the needle is worn? What's the standard needle from a HS2 on a Mini K 1100? EDIT/ When the problem is really bad, it's right through the rev range. |

Mods are detailed in the dizzy thread, or on J_A_M's site. Basically bolt it in, fire it up, set timing with strobe light. Tear up and down the road and have a fiddle. 
Advance curve is pretty good stock. Haven't fitted one yet that didn't go better! |
