seem to remember being faster than a certain TR a few times but that was with a
Mikuni. I've always said these aren't bad cars if you put enough Japanese
parts on them. LOL </DIV>

carburetors don’t leak, you are out of gas. (This rule is similar to the “MG
test for oil”).<BR>* The only time your carburetors run properly is when a
mechanic is taking a test drive.<BR>* SU carburetors parts are
interchangeable. You can replace a faulty part with a new one and the
carburetor will run just like it always did.<BR>* When replacing needles, the
only parts store with the correct ones will be in Coventry or on a ship
floundering in an Atlantic storm.<BR>* When you get the correct carburetor
needles, one of them will be bent.<BR>* The universal SU repair Kit will work
on all carburetors except yours.<BR>* A float will only have a hole in it if
it is Sunday and the parts store is closed.<BR>* No two repair books will
recommend the same fluid for the dampers.<BR>* Whitworth nuts and bolts are
similar to SAE nuts and bolts except that the shoulders are rounded off.<BR>*
Tightening the jet nut will automatically move the jet off center.<BR>* All
levers and jets will move smoothly if (and only if) the carburetor is sitting
on the kitchen table.<BR>* MG carburetors are infinitely adjustable. That is
they can be set anywhere from “not quite right” to “totally wrong”.<BR>*
Despite the above, a weekend working on the MG carburetors is preferable to
fixing the oil
leak.</SPAN></SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>_______________________________________________
