It was, the seals in the throttle and choke spindels are well past there best, that carb came off an A reg metro turbo and has never had a rebuild. The fuel got blown past the seals dropping onto the VERY hot turbo/manifold and hit it temperature flashpoint and "hey presto" fire!..

Problem being remedied!
