The Townie has been losing power of late and I have used the hand throttle just to keep the revs up so that it wouldn't stall. The hills that I used to climb in third gear now require second gear.

I just replaced the plugs, rotor, plug wires, and points. Bear now idles much better but the hills still require second gear and the temp hovers around 190 at the top of the hill. This is about 10 degrees up from normal. Maybe it can be because of the longer run in second gear.

The old plugs looked pretty good with no oil deposits.

I got out my trusty strobe, but can't get a fix on which mark to use. I might just do the "by ear" thing.

Best Wishes
Lonnie
