Hey guys sorry i havent been on in a long time, been busy with work, and also gettin my car into retro cars magazine. Keep ur eyes open!

Right back to the question, im having a few running troubles with my car and im pretty sure its fuel related. It will accelerate slowly at partial throttle, but any more and it will die, start dropping cylinders. I think the fuel filter in the carb may be blocked as my in line one isnt.

So where is the filter in the carb? i cant find the bugger anywhere, but i know it has one! I have one in my rebuild kit, but no where for it to go!

cheers

heheh thats gonna be fun, the last one of those stupid screws to remove is the one retaining the float. I cant drill it out as there is nothing to grab afterwards. Oh what to do>
