aaaahhhhhhh,i should never have started messing with the carb on my sj,i changed it for an SU and have nothing but problems!
Ive put the standard carb back on tonight and the damn thing still wont run.
To say im annoyed is understatement of the century

Well,half a litre of petrol straight down the carb,two batteries hooked up and me twisting the dizzy with it turning over for an eternity saw it limp into life on what sounded like 2 pistons!!!!
I just kept the throttle wide open and eventually it picked up and is now running sweet as a nut
A whaddon we shall go,and leave the su affair for another day _________________ Ive created a monster............. |

standard at the moment.
Its hif44.
it ran with the su very nicely until i plumbed in the return fuel pipe and the non return valve jammed up ,both of them did and i think it force fed the engine petrol till it could take no more and forced its way out of the su manifold adapter bracket gaskets.
Ill sort the su after ive been for a play at whaddon march 7th
I was wondering if i could get a thicker plate welded to the bottom of the bracket as it has bent under the strain,not much but enough to let fuel seep out _________________ Ive created a monster............. |

Ive just had the adapter plate for the su carb beefed up with a 10mm bottom plate so its extra strong and wont bend again!!
I reckon the su will go back on next week _________________ Ive created a monster............. |
