A lot of people use `E`s autos in Bisley . Can`t seem to find a link but someone may be along with contact details ??

Hi , where abouts are you ?? Cheers ..

I`ve sent you a PM :?:

Less on the bling and more time learning . First trip in mine - I took it to Turkey . I knew NOTHING when I set off but learned quickly and steady away got me there .......... and back 2 years later . :D Really dunno why people spend a fortune on the looks but know very little about the...

Clean out / replace the idle jet . RHS of carb , 8mm (?) socket - this worked for a friend with similar issues ;) :msn4:

I really hope you`ve managed to sort this out ?? Did you manage to source any poles ?? :?

Enjoy the trip - did it a few years ago and had a ball 8) Forget about joining the CCC just for the discounts as it`s cheap enough anyway + they want you to book in advance , not something I do to be honest .... :)

Any guarantee it adjusts up and runs well ?

2nd dibs on the filter head please .... Just pm me if it`s still up for grabs. Ta

As above ^^^^ .... Try it 8)

Two points really .... I ran a 009 for 20 years but never could get it spot on - best improvement was to set the quadrant on the accelerator pump to maximum squirt . Second point being I fitted an accuspark SVDA last week and it TRANSFORMED the low to mid-range . No fiddling with the carb ...
