Hi,
My 1976 Series 1 Shadow (SRH23765)runs erratically and does not idle smooth. It backfires through carburettor and exhaust at high revs. It sometimes fires on all cylinders and sometimes not. The distributor fitted to the car is an electronic one, is this the correct type for a late series 1?
I am looking for a vacuum advance for this type of distributor (Lucas). Can any one help??
I would really appreciate advice on how to rectify so she will run as she is supposed to.
Kind regards
Rod Spargo
