Default Spare plug

Stephan,
Your lucky you have one plug! I to have looked in vain for one with no luck.
I have come to the conclusion that I will have to resin cast one using pins from some-one like Farnell. However it is not top of my list. I'm having problems with carburation very similar to you! I'm in the process of levelling the inlet manifold flange and making new studs.This should hopefully solve the air leakage problems.
I found the linkage setup and kickdown setting etc critical to trying to achieve tickover at 500rpm. I still have a sneaking feeling the carb may be porous.
If so i will have to look at an Edelbrock replacement.
If I come accross any plugs, I will buy two and send you one.
Regards,
David
