16H advance stuck

Forums

Warm and sunny day, got tired of working with my other Nortons and took out my 16H for a ride. A bit sleepy after a long winter rest she didn't start until third kick. Took off happily but....

Ignition advance stuck. Went back home and started searching the net. I think I've seen some tips somewhere but I can't find it now. If you have any info on the problem please let me know. I need to know both dismantling procedure (a bit more detailed than the Lucas workshop instructions) of bowden wire and camplate.

Are there a common fix?

Eager to get the old lady running, I started to fix it on my own.

A simple task, only to oil the wire and install the wire properly. Previous owner had managed to install it wrong!

Now it's a sweet running bike, starts on first kick and running as well as you can expect of a 72 year old.
