My Model T was running worse than the Mexican economy; and I was at a loss as to why that was. Until I took the timer cover off...
So, using a sanding head on my cheap Bunnings engraver tool, I managed to (by eye) re-surface the contact (and insulator) surfaces inside my roller timer. Now I know this should really be done on a lathe to get a perfectly rounded surface, but as I don't have access to one, this was the next best thing, which I'm pleased to say worked very well!
