Two on a row - Murphy law on electronic ignition 120-130 1966

Hola George!. Gracias, si en mi ciudad la temperatura llegase a 40 grados centigrados, seria una noticia de primera plana en los diarios. Usualmente (sin contar los aņos que tenemos el fenomeno de "La Niņa") tenemos entre 13 y 32 grados a lo largo del aņo, siendo el promedio 15 en invierno y 27 en verano (aqui el otoņo y la primavera solo existen en el papel).

Creo que con la mala ignicion no se generaba suficiente calor en parte del bloque motor como para hacer fluido del todo al aceite. En unas semanas un amigo mio viaja a europa y se ha ofrecido a conseguirme una de esas bujias transparentes para ver el color de la llama en el cilindro, veremos entonces si mis ajuste del avance (hecho con lampara estroboscopica) es el adecuado.

The same on spanglish:

Hi George, Thanks, if in my city the temperature going to 104 degrees, it will the main subject on local newspapers. Usually (without counting "La Niņa" years) we have here between 55 and 90 degress along the year, with a mean of 60 on winter and 80 on summer (autuum and spring are near inexistent).

I believe my bad ignition make insufficient heat on part of the engine block, and due it, the oil was not totaly fluid. In some weeks a friend of mine goes to Europe. and he offer to adquire one of that transparent sparks for see the color of the flame into the cylinder. Then I will check with it if my advance setting (made with a strob light) is adequate.

Por cierto, que disfrutes del sol y de la isla tropical...

Cordialmente,

Joaquin
