Absolutely! Basic Fluid dynamics, if you open the aperture wider (smaller to larger fuel hose), pressure drops. The relationship is inverse to pi-r-squared (area or opening), in square inches (or squ

Not being a real MG officianado (even though I REALLY like the Midget styling), I can't verify the engine. It did, however, have a single carburetor that looked sort-of like a single SU, but with a f
