[QUOTE="Gert Big T, post: 366966, member: 13146"] I had similar issues on a previous bus. It was a couple of things. One was the ignition leads coming loose from the spark plugs and distributor cap, the other problem was due to the small cam on the of the carb catching on the casing of the aftermarket alternator that was fitted, as this was causing the engine to only have half throttle, which in turn was making the engine struggle and over heat at speed, up hills etc. I ended up having to put a spacer on the carb to lift it higher and shave a mm or two of the alternator casing to let the small cam clear. :?: [/QUOTE]
