Hi!
I can not to establish a stable speed. Turnover strongly swim, it's good to hear and see the stroboscope. Does anyone can help?
Thank you.
unstable speed
I got the same problem; the strobo move a little bit and it's difficult to adjust the speed (there is a "crank");
I think that the original grease used in the engine must be changed (2011 -1979 ?? = 32 years !)
Also - I don't have the schematic - maybe there's some condenser inside who need to be replaced but first I will clean then engine and put new grease.
It is also possible to clean the speed potentiometers with a special spray...
Bye, Philippe
