Thanks folks, i'll Tony Selby. 

Hello again all. Can you please once again help me out? Im awaiting delivery of an old. School haynes manual for my 13/60 herald but to prepare can you advise me of the recommended grease for rack and trunnion lube, oil for rack and diff? Cheers all. 

Just returned from the road test and all fine. Thanks everyone. 

Hello folks. Here's the update. 

Diapgragm and pot needle replaced. Now seems to be running fine on choke. Taking her out now dlfor the road test.. 

I'll get the parts. From Burlem and post the result. 

I'll get one ordered on Monday. 

Thanks for pointing me towards Burlen. I usually use Rimmer Bros. 

I think ive found the problem. 

I replaced all sparks, all are firing. 

Removed the top of the carb amr re inspected the diaphagm. I found a small split approximately 2mm long that opens when pressed. I suspect this is the cause? Un balanced air fuel mixture. Sound likley? 

Oil in pot topped up. Still the same.

Clunk heard on operating the test pin and on release. 

Can't see a condenser. Has an Accuspark system installed. 

Checked all sparks are firing. 

Any other suggestions? 

Going to change the condenser, top up the oil amd check the test pin now. 

Thats great, i'll start with the condenser! 

Hello. Yes. On mine the diaphragm has a profile ledge that fits into a corresponding recess on the lower carb body which makes it a fit correctly. 

The damper does slde in without resistance but is oiled on the bulb, maybe the tube needs topping up? 

Hello thanks for the replys. I've had the top of the carb off. There's no tear in the diaphragm and I cleaned the interior while i examined it. 

Could be the plunger oil. Can you please tell me which oil to use an the filling level? 

Hello all can anyone provide an answer... 

Yesterday afternoon my herald was running just lovely untill a small stop for five minutes. 

After pulling away the engine became rough and lumpy, holding back almost like on choke or running on 3. I recently serviced the engine including ht leads, cap, sparks. I've rechecked the leads all are fine after checking them individually with a previous one i have. 

Fuel appears good. Flow from tank fine. 

Any thoughs...? 

ok will do. Thanks for all the info folks!

hello, i haven't been under yet. thanks for the info. any idea on the hex size?

Hello folks, can anyone tell me the spanner size of the sump drain plug on my 1970 13/60 herald please?

OK fella, thanks very much.

going to put this down to a a bad idea. cheers folks.

thanks for the reply. Yes it does help, i'd hoped for some benefit to buy one but if there's none i'll carry on with the factory set up. Cheers buddy.

hello folks. I'm after some advice on fitting a K+N  air filter to my 13/60 herald.

Basically has any one installed one on a standard engine? I've had no mods on my engine other than electronic  ignition. Are there any noticeable benefits on installing one? thanks Folks.

Hello folks. Any one changed the front bumper chrome overriders on 1970 herald? Care to share any info?
