Big thank you for your post :ok I did a small repair to my left ( beginner welder) cutting through 2 lots of skin. My right side has a slight collapse at jacking point and will need rectifying soon. The pictures and wording have given me a multi boost in confidence. Just have to wait for good weathe...

I have an old colour tune. For some reason image wont come up, so will try to discribe the kit. You detach a sparkplug, attach a replica plug with plastic suround. Put the tube with a mirror at the end over spark device attach a lead into tube then reatach lead from distributer. Start engine then ad...

Have a look at "Japhands make it Kustom"on you tube. I have been realy suprised at how this guy explains things simply, shows how to make useful tooling/machinery out of the junk we have lying around and best methods to achieve what we want to do. :) https://youtu.be/Myhwb1LmMqE?si=sfUEf8v...

Has the little mesh filter been checked for debri at carb fuel supply.
Also give the distributor caps points a clean and double check that all leads are in fully.
My lead from coil was in but not fully engaged, this was gibing me a bit of misfiring.
Just adding to Maxstu's list..

Is it by chance your ecelerator sticking not the carb?
Having a bit of an issue with mine at moment and need to lubricate conduit.

In Feb 22 I had an advisory off my mot to replace the rubbers on my drivers side wishbone.
Grabbed it to try and loosen and my thumb went through the side of it

Goes to show things aren't what they seem.

Amazon, if these are what your looking for.

Correct me if I am wrong, but iirc there are 2 bleed nipples on each of the front brakes. Did you bleed all 4 ?

Have these on mine and my motorbike.
Definitely helps.

I too have a small leak and often top up the reserve and check the tank. When topping up the main tank there are always bubbles in it. To remove the air I use a straw with a strong copper wire shape like the letter J in it. Cover the top end of straw with thumb (not to let air escape) insert in bott...

This is my set up with a 3/4 bed. https://i.imgur.com/VSoUlKf.jpeg 2 holes in above cupboard and bunjie to hold dog fence onto Autohomes bed, with large sponge armed dog bed. They love their freedom and no tangling of dogs. :D Slide back loops for entry, exit. At night they sleep on their bed on tur...

I had 4 in slightly better condition.
Took an upholstery hammer to the inside while resting cap on hard rubber mat,buffed them up and was surprised by the outcome.
Right is how they looked, Left, just like in Blue Peter, the one I prepared earlier.

Is it the fact that the plate with the bolts on is coming off with the drum?
Does look odd, ( correct me if I'm wrong) but the nut has been removed so both can come out together ?

Iirc the adjuster arm pulls the cog up inside the drum, (down plate side) to tighten brakes. Therefore the cog will have to be pushed up to release from the hole in the dust plate. I have used a large zip tie from inside the arm out around the pipe and back through the hole, the locking mechanism ke...
