Keith talks about Biscuit - his new found '79 Midget....and it struck me that
every '79 Midget I know, including mine, always runs rich. Though I keep
diddling with it, nothing seems to help.
Wondered if Keith (or others) has discovered any specific problem from the '79
that might give a clue to fixing it once and for all.
