Hi Dave,

Look. Many thanks for all your effort so far. It certainly has given me the desire to see this through. I must confess that after beating the dog I thought of changing hobbies :-)

It has become my mission now, to see this through to the bitter end. As a result I have located a couple of contacts that may be able to supply a replacement carby. I have also heard a whisper that there may be some OS Carbs that would suite. I shall investigate and see if I can at least locate a replacement.

It would make sense that the carby has done a runner as there was a requirement to use a little extra force to un-jam the needle after it had sat sooooo long without use. I am now going to extract the motor again :-)

I must also thank you for the photos as they are a great help. I wish that my carby was kept that clean !!!!!!

I will certainly keep you informed as to the progress. I am on the hunt for another carby as we speak.

Many thanks,

Martin
