Re: Martin "40"
I believe your motor is a late 47.Points are set at .020,J8C plugs at .035,1/2 pt to a gallon mix use TCW3 rated oil.<br /> If the recoil has not been tampered with it may just need some lubrication.I dont know the Martin<br />but most recoils can be removed easily and worked on.Just keep in mind there is a coiled spring<br /> that can get out of hand.If it needs more tension<br />You may be able to remove the rope and add a couple of turns and reinstall the rope.Martins use poppet valves instead of reed valves.
