Once you sort out the niggles it’ll be fine. It’ll be something simple I’m sure.

When I’ve had bogging down before I adjusted the little cam that delivers the fuel to the carb’ and at the same time I looked at the accelerator pump diaphragm and it had a very small perforation so I replaced that and all was good. Easy to do both with a screwdriver. I also changed my ignition amp ...

Have you tested the coil with a multimeter?
So it runs ok for a bit then starts to run rough when it’s up to temperature or when the choke comes off?

The clutch slave boots tend to deteriorate fairly quickly too.

Well you’re getting there.
Does it feel harder to brake? Sounds like a vacuum leak somewhere or as you say the servo may be on its way out.

Have you flooded it? I would clean the plugs/ check for fouling/ spark and check fuel delivery. Check the choke/ pull down and if all vacuum pipes are good. If all good maybe a drop of fuel down the carb’ and see if it fires. You haven’t knocked a wire off the coil or summat when you replaced the ho...

I had the rev limited one and it burnt out so replaced it with another but it left me stranded in the middle of nowhere a fortnight later. I carry a spare bog standard one and that got me going again. It’s always good to try the simple things before diving in head first even if it’s a recently purch...

I bought one recently from Gower and Lee. It is one for a Golf that has an extra port. A blanking cap is provided which I glued on.

Just to recap. You have now fuel being delivered but it won’t fire even with a bit down the carb’?
Have you tested for a spark ?

As mentioned try the simple things first. When mine stalled at junctions it was the inlet maniflod. Start it up, get someone to get round the back with a can of carb cleaner. Let your foot off the accelerator and as the engine dies/ falters get them to carefully spray a small blast around the inlet ...

Replacing the voltage regulator brush pack is a 5 minute job, just two screws. You’ll then see the wear in the brushes.

I had a Dave Cooper but it only carried a Tomos ( 50kg) and then my Vespa( 90kg).
