Default Re: electrical probs

Morning all.

Carburettor, Or Curvy SV's as they're called are known to be tempermental when it's damp for a number of reasons.
Firstly the front cylinder plug cap is prone to getting wet & shorting, carburettor icing is the second problem that can occur, especially this time of year.
Then there is the problem with the choke plungers sticking, usually due to sticking cables.

Cheers.
