I've Got The 'Needle'

[Jimbob-Squarepants ©]

Well I will have tomorrow to be precise. Just ordered another set of needles for my Strombergs that have a different profile. Unfortunatley looking through my book, any needles that will make it run less rich on tickover will make it enormously rich everywhere else. So I have opted for needles that will hopfully stop me chucking petrol straight out the exhaust pipe and flooding the carbs out at full throttle.

 

Stay tuned for an update tomorrow

Hi JB. Isn't there a main jet to control fuel delivery at full throttle??

I thought the needle profile only altered the mixture at part throttle.

Had a bit of dealing with this on the old ERA with what I think was a 3" SU.
