Out of prognostication

The reason of sudden stopping yesterday was high tension code leakage mainly went to the wiring on automatic choke.

Keeping a distance avoiding leakage from another wiring the high voltage code could flow enough current to spark plugs.

Finding out that the pushing spring inserted between rotor center touching contactor and distributor cap center were lost and the the contactor was fixed in the deeper part of the cap center. The rotor center was stained with black sludge throughly. As a natural reaction, some adequate coil spring was applied and the rotor center was polished.

This discription is based on the fact that the AD motor response remarkably improved like different one so smooth like not OHV motor. And the idling RPM probably exceeds 1300 rpm after the adequate high tention code arrangement. So idle speed must be reduced by adjusting bypass screw on 34PICT3 carburetor. All the performances of AD motor were far improved by this treatment.

Though new parts, Gold LUCAS ignition coil and a capacitor were prepared, they were not necessary on earth, also old SAAB ignition coil was wired as an experiment, proving as good enough to be utilized for a spare parts.

Anyway my lovely VW 1302 could start to move again tonight, my working pit is now clear for OPEL B-Vectra's servicing tomorrow.
