Trigger:
The Dutch carb guru will deliver in 2-3 working days. His goods are top quality and not pull your pants down price.

Woodside:
Great I'll order some right now cheers

Trigger:
I would wait until you know that the leaf springs are OK. Or you maybe doing a double order.

Woodside:
Yeah I did hold off...gonna look this weekend

Orcade-Ian:
Hi Folks,
At the risk of hi-jacking this thread, has anyone had 'issues' with keyster float valve/seats?  The reason I ask is that my 350/4 is playing up.  A while since I used it after I restored it, but I have replaced the fuel tap seal (the 4 hole one for stop/reserve/on) I've ultrasonic cleaned the whole bank and replaced the needle valve/seats on all 4 and set the float height to 24mm with a home made gauge.  No difference - the tap still passes a bit of fuel when off and random carbs leak fuel from the overflows - upredictable which one, but all 4 have done it at some time.  Runs OK at tickover and pulls well unless you snap open the grip at 50mph in top, when it bogs down slightly before pulling to the redline - not the best way to treat a humble 350 anyway.
The leakage means that you dare not leave it without clamping the pipe and if you do leave it, it's obviously rich as hell on startup until the level drops back.
I'm thinking of asking Basil Fawlty to come round to beat it with his big tree branch!
Any other ideas?
Ian
