G' day DOC

i think these are so hard that they will skate across the road . who knows though . i can get tyre softener for $50 for a small tin but i am thinking they are too far gone .... i know lanolin ( from sheep's wool ) is very good for leather, rubber, & wood ect ect . i was wondering about putting it on the inside of the tyre ? just a wild stab in the dark. well i installed my msd 6al last night and widened the spark plug gaps to .035 th ( they were .032 because i had ignition & weak spark problems ) well iam off soon to test drive the val & see if shes going any better cya mate...
