Here comes a story. It's a new dizzy. I've just (well, six weeks ago) paid (lots) for a comprehensive service from a local "specialist". On the way back from the service "Gloria" started running a bit rough, misfiring and occasionally backfiring. When I got home I phoned the "specialist" and asked him to sort it out. That was six weeks ago. He's failed to show up on three separate occasions and is now avoiding my calls, so I've decided to try to get to the bottom of it myself. I also had a new Weber carb fitted at the same time, so I suppose it could be adjustment of that at fault, but on balance I suspect it's more likely that the points aren't closing or that it's a dodgy condenser. If anybody has any mechanical aptitude at all (any at all = > mine), is feeling benevolent, has a few spare minutes and lives anywhere near Bristol/Bath, the kettle's on and there's beer in the fridge...
