Hi guys,
I have just adjusted the valve timing on my 2000TC which was a bit off. I'd hoped this would be the panacea to the car's serious lack of power and chugging engine note but it has made little difference. I've checked the clearances and they are a fair bit off, and yet she idles nicely but just has no power at all. I have checked, rechecked, and rerechecked the usual suspects - timing, carbs, HTs, plug, compression. Are my symptoms typical of clearances being out? (sorry, I don't have them to hand, but some are tight, i.e no clearance, some 5 thou out).
