Re: Speedo

I have had 500 trouble free miles so far with my metal MB set up and 3 hours faffing and 0 miles trying to set up an SR nylon pair on my S2. I had some trepidation about the all metal MB set up but so far so good. Mixing nylon and metal feels like it might accelerate wear on the nylon part but who c...

Re: Rev Counter for S Type

Warkton - thanks for the comments. The krober ones certainly look the part and I like your view on the historical context. As it happens I have actually gone down the route that mawso suggests and ordered a koso gp analogue one which does look very tidy. I had a good chat with Jon at http://digitals...

Re: carb pouring fuel out

Thanks goldeneye, but your shed is safe.

Fitted new gaskets, washers and float needle and all is well again.

Re: carb pouring fuel out

Thanks for the replies.

I've just ordered a £12 refurb set with new gaskets, needles, float etc so I'm going to give it a full service as a starting point.
