no more popping

[John Hertog <crossram@xxxx>]

Hi to all and thanks to all that responded. Seems problem is solved - no
more popping.

First started by driving car immediately when cold. I thought that perhaps
the fact that the chokes were still closed would affect SOMETHING . It
didn't - the car popped immediately, just as before, as soon as I got to the
traffic circle a few hundred feet down the road.

Before starting on big work, like pulling the rams off, it seemed logical to
try the easy stuff first. The solution? Replaced the distributor with
another unit. Solved the problem completely - I cannot get the carbs to pop
or sputter no matter if I turn left, or right, or whatever ! It was an
instantaneous fix. Whew !

Why a distributor problem would make a car pop back thru the carbs on left
hand turns is totally beyond me. Visual inspection of old distributor
reveals nothing afoul. I intend to ship the distributor to Don Verity so he
can set it up on his Sun distributor machine and hopefully find out what was
wrong with it.

Thanks again to all that responded . It all helped ! Maybe this can help
diagnose Pete Fitch's 300G as well !

300'ly to all
