Weekly checks

Have you got the vacuum piston lifters fitted to the carbs? If not then the needles and jets will be very worn as the flow of petrol lubricates them as the piston moves up and down. If you don't have the lifters then fit them and a new pair of needles and jets.

Whassat then? My Dad was taught POWER in the army (petrol, oil, water, electrics (battery), rubber (tyres)) which I still use today, but I've never heard of PETROL.

Hello Richard. Petroleum. Electrical. Tyres. Rubbers. Oil. Lubrication. This I learned from St Athans among other things in 1982. Someone may correct me if I maybe wrong. regards john
