<VV> Two part : rich exhaust fumes & better ignition system

[Brandes, Guy]

Hi Mark,

Have you checked your carbs?  Might want to do that before you jump into
a new ignition system, it just might be to rich.

Group,
 
   I have noticed that the exhaust from this '65 110 is really rich -
lots of unburned fuel.  Needless to say the fuel consumption is higher
than normal.

 Also,  noticed a couple of  fouled plugs ( sooty stuff , easliy cleaned
carbon fouling. )  Chokes look OK and are fully open when the engine is
running,

My thoughts turn to a perhaps more robust ignition  system than the old
points.  

Any one care to share any favorite upgrades to the ignition system to
give it a bigger zap?

Thanks

Mark
