HI Pete  - sorry for the delay in coming back to you, Returning from holiday and back to work (13 years to go ! and yes I'm counting!) to a pile of things to sort.

 

I also have a sticking Thermostat so I'm going to have to fix that first

 

Anyway how is the 22nd as a date to pencil in for this?

Well a few coffee's should allow some cool down,

 

but once youve mastered the method you will be confident to do it when she is cold

 

personally I prefer a spec thats at operating temperature then you are setting in iits running condition,

but Triumph dont give a hot figure

 

the answer is set them cold ....get it hot ....and measure the hot gap

 

the cold setting is from the days on the engine build line the engines are cold

they never seem to have added a hot gap spec.

Pete
