[QUOTE="moto8500, post: 160655, member: 4798"] Thank you Bill and I have viewed 246 in a 1952 lightning set up complete with period leathers and boots and all one can say is wow - Jack Ehret you have found your match. Being a big capacity v twin it's no surprise the Vincents are a bit oily. Mine is a new engine which I have just run in so everything is tight and I had been running on brownish deposits at the electrode but now things have bedded down a bit in the carb/engine department it is time to do some fettling to get to reset things and the thread has been extremely useful to know what issues I have to bear in mind in order achieve this.
