Re: ZIKES LAMBRETTA SERIES 2 TV175 FROM SWEDEN
Think there is a piccy of a TV2 with that legshield badge in the book Mod- A very british phenomenon by Terry Rawlings- one where they are all lined up on the seafront

Re: 22mm Jetex
I have managed to source the dellorto jets from omes that I already had and have soaked them in petrol over night- I do not have a 5899/4 atomizer but have a dellorto stamped 5899/2.
Can I use the 5899/2 or would it be best to keep the Jetex one in? There doesnt seem to be any difference visually

Re: 22mm Jetex
Ive replaced the main Jet with a dellorto one- ill have to have a look through my other bits and bobs for the corresponding dellorto ones and replace.
Could this be an electrical /timing fault? Ive replaced the copper wire with a length of silicone HT lead.
Tickover just seems really weak.

Had another play tonight and the plug was bone dry and greyish so i wound out the mixture screw some more.

22mm Jetex
After struggling with a series of Dellorto carbs with stripped choke threads, I bought a Jetex 22mm for my Li 150 with electronic ignition and AF clubman exhaust. Problem is I cant seem to get an even tickover?
Any ideas?
Cheers

Re: Number plates -??
I'm gonna have a go at painting my own using a stencil. I want the original sixties style painted font (bottom) as opposed to the new one. Any ideas on what metal i should use?
