I have an 1835 with twin webers in the crewcab
My local mechanic that is servicing it, can't get it right with the tuning.. It splutters and backfires and I am going back every week.. He is sick of me and I'm sick of him.. Anyone know of a reputable tuner close to Sydney east side..

Try Powertune on Victoria RD gladsville. He's spose to build ace engines.

BTW, do you still want that amp and speakers or are you sorted for one now?

Apparently he built the motor so that is a good option.. Now why didn'y I think of that?

mate I got mine serviced a few weeks back, was fine the first few days then started to get worse and worse. was sputtering, wouldn't idle properly and backfired. took it back to my mechanic and he said he was having an argument with bosch about faulty points or something like that. anyways, i got new points put in, tuned up and it's running perfect now. worth a try maybe?
