Re: Rapido Mbgm Clubman

I reckon more expensive sorta sums it up. I believe Ralph Saxelby created the ultimate clubman, and that the superlative build quality justified the price. Scooterings test rated the AF clubman above the Bgm.

Re: Any Ideas?

Your choke is sticking on - its a regular problem with the PHBH, that's why its the same choke on or off. loosen the cable right off and stretch the spring a bit and try it. If that cures it change to an AV266/X13 before you blow it up.

Re: Rapido Mbgm Clubman

Wouldn't it be cheaper to buy an AF clubman as they perform just as well.

Re: Spark Plug Head Scratcher...

IMHO 262 atomiser + X7 needle = hole in piston. AV264/X13 may be ok. At least 50/52 pilot aprox 1.5 turns out.

I did hear some use transmission fluid but when I repeated this out loud a Fatwa was served on me. Be carful out there. :shock: Doubt it the Indian SIL engines used to arrive with tr...

Re: Spaco 30mm - phbh replica

The spaco works very well but very hard on rubber mounts due to being much heavier then the Delly.

Re: Port Timings - Recessed Head?

The only accurate way of measuring port timing is to use a degree wheel.
