    Dave, pic of the ignition amplifier please.
  8. Check carb adjustment, balance etc. If all OK then it’s probably one of the grub screws/locknuts at the sides of the carbs that hold the chokes in place. Unscrew grub screw/locknut, smear with some form of gasket sealant and replace/tighten – gently.

    New to the 7

    Should we have a xflow club 😬
  10. 2nd dibs to both if Peter declines (don't know why he would though).
  11. No computer trickery here. The only map you need for a x/flow is how to get from A to B 😬 Yeah, how did you get on Rich.

    CTEK chargers

    Roger. yeah you are correct, our local CostCo has the Zafir 90 for just over £30. A 3600, which I was going to buy, is nearer £50. Thanks.

    What is the difference between the Zafir 90 and 3600. Which is best suitable for the 7?
  14. Rich, I had a weber flooding problem just as you describe, I adjusted balance, float levels, check valve etc. I also had a blat mail from a chap in Germany with this solution ... it worked for me and thats quite a few years back! The following is Klaus's e-mail to me. Klaus Koenig, Munich, Germany --------------------------------------------- There is another source for the leaking of Weber DCOEs. This was pointed out to my by Keith, a Weber tuning guru that I met on the Innovate Motorsport forum. I repeat this with my own words, but the credits are with Keith... The DCOE has a design flaw, because there is no seal between the auxillary venturi and the carb housing. The auxilary venturi carrys the venturi that is responsible for delivering fuel from the main jet. The auxilary venturi is simly slotted into the carb body and held in place by the grub screw on the underside of the carb. Now, the fuel from the main jet is routed from a hole in the carb body into a matching channel in the auxilary venturi, but there is no seal to prevent fuel leackage. The seal is supposed to be made by tightening the grub screw, but you can't overdo it, because otherwise the aux venturi will be damaged. What will happen now, if the seal in not perfect, is that on open throttle, when the main circuit is active, fuel will leak out of there and collect in the gap between the aux venturi and the body. Eventually it will dribble out of there and drop on you battery. This will only happen when the main circuit is active, therefore on idle, no fuel will drip out. To cure this, you can try to tighten the grub screw a little bit, or your can try to put some Hylomar between the aux venturi and the carb body. But be careful not to smear any sealant into the main circuit channel.

    Tony Weale book

    I've missed a few Mick! However I'm not prepared to pay silly prices! Any one got one for sale 🤔
  16. Mine is:- From centre outside edge of windscreen to centre top of FIA bar is 765mm. The bar is like yours, 1 diagonal.
  17. Me and SWMBO will be there . We all parking in the usual spot 🤔
  18. I live just around the corner from Kenny and drove this car the other week. It is a very quick xflow.
  19. Kenny, you don't want to know. I lost, SWMBO won! Will I ever get my R300!
  20. Kenny , pop round and have a look.
  21. Looking at the breather on my Ital axle is nothing like yours Chris. Best can be described as a piece of plastic tube about 4" long which seems to be fitted from inside the axle tube unlike the 'threaded' version you have.
  22. Red, no windscreen, about 6.10pm heading towards Warrington.
