[Healeys] intermittent OD

[Jim LeBlanc]

I recall using a brass screw without putting threads in the hole. Some
recommend a nylon screw. As the plunger operates on magnetic pull, one does
want to avoid steel. (I have never verified the effect of magnetism and
avoided the possible research effort).
 
I recall putting a nut on both sides of the hole giving adjustment to plunger
fall.

The old timers like Malcom Terry taught us to tap the hole and run a 
machine screw up through the bottom to act as a stop. Worked for me!

Thanks  for all the suggestions provided last week regarding the problem I
was 
having with the OD on my BJ8. I've read in a few places and someone 
mentioned
that a 1/8th inch thick rubber bumper should be located  somewhere under
the OD
plunger that lifts the rod that activats the OD. I  can't find this rubber
piece
in the parts manual. Is this a home made fix  and if so, exactly where is
this
rubber piece placed and how is it secured  in place? Thanks much.
