So close  - yeat so far.

0riginal carby was cactus - would only run if I poured fuel down the throat.

So of to the wreckers to hunt down another carb - thought I had it, got back to find out that new carbys 40 mm, old one 35mm - frickin thing.

Some bodging and I got it to fit, but wouldnt idle - BUGA.

Oh then there was the rain.

At least we got some stuff done on the tow van - reinforced the tow bar, welded the shocker hangers back on, baised the exhaust where it was leaking.

And got some computa stuff working for Mrs Eddy.

Not how I wanted the weekend to end, but - shite happens  ::)
