wolseley wd6 runs and stops
hi there
been playing today with my wolseley wd
starts up easy runs off the choke starts to steam the water in hopper
then is as dead as veloscarapter no sign of a spark any where
go off 30 40 mins crank and off she goes again then steam ect ect as above all over again
when it impulses after break it gives me a good one as i found out when my wife desided to rock the flywheel when i wasnt looking
****BLESS HER *******OR WORDS TO THAT EFFECT I THINK I SAID TO HER AT THE TIME !!!!LOL!!!!
is the mag coil breaking down or may there be somthing else
THANKS KEV

Hi Kev, Sounds more like your condenser is on the way out.
Do you have a good earth between mag and engine?
Bill.

Hi Kev,
i agree with bill, definately the condensor, its breaking down as it warms up, onces its cooled down its okay again until it warms back up.
Cheers.
