You can fit an advancer and use the same technique to find the sweet spot but start with Ivan's way and see how you get on first.

I tried these with resonable success. http://www.grip-puppy.co.uk/

Are you sure about that idle figure for the Gen1? I thought it was supposed to be about 950rpm?


Re: Vibration (again) - Falcon 269 - 16-09-14

Stock is 1050 - 1150 rpm according to workshop manual. 

The higher figures help maintain oil pressure at idle and the transition from idle to part-throttle.

950rpm is way too low. Smile

May give those grips a try, thanks for that.


Received my advancer today, so that may shed a few more vibes. It is better after the carb balance and it does vibe less with a full/half full tank.

As a matter of interest, how long is it since you last changed your plugs? (miles/years)


Re: Vibration (again) - woodwizzard - 17-09-14

Changed them 3 days ago. Took iridium ones out and went back to normal ngks'. Not sure when they were last done. Normally change plugs every 2 years. Fitted the advancer today and am getting some grip puppy things. Should be as smooth as a smooth thing now.
