Morning guys,my Bullet euro4 is performing well
Can I ask about my triump?
1962 t100ss
Starts first kick and will rev ok,but will not tickover
It's a single coil distributor type
Any suggestions would be appreciated
Cheers

If it starts & revs ok then it sounds like carb adjustment (throttle stop screw and/or pilot screw). As it starts ok I presume you've tried adjusting the throttle stop screw?

Do you still have a battery fitted?, If so is it good?, If both answers are yes then most likely a pilot jet problem.

Read something years ago about an identical problem with a distributor unit triumph. Turned out the distributor bearings were shot, once the distributor was rebuilt with new ones tickover was fine.
