RE-Pinto Set up

Hi Guy's

Following on from my post earlier regarding the "TAK TAK" noise on further investigation I have
tracked it down to Cylinder No1, more luck than management, I have found that if I remove the
No1 plug lead the "TAK TAK" noise disappears, I have tried with all the other pots and this makes
no difference, I have changed the plug leads and spark plugs, and only by removing the no1 lead
does the noise disappear.

Any help appreciated
John

Little Ends possibly? No firing means no load on the little end.

It looks like the Midget is winning at the moment......

Exhaust leak at the manifold face often sounds like a Tak Tak.
