Mk1 clipper running rough
There's a how to section on here that shows how to set up the pieburg 2e2 up properly well worth a read.
If it's not carbed related I'd look at dizzy cap and rotor arm. Sometimes the caps have a hairline crack in them. Have you put new leads and dizzy on or checked rotor arm for wear?
Cheers

I have got a weber carb with manual choke so I just pulled the choke out a tiny bit and it ran fine.
Could be a fuelling issue???
Mousey.
