Still working on the mini to get it ready for Belgium.


The carb needed a rebuild was sticking a bit. New jet , spindle, spindle bushes and a few other bits.

Did the ultrasonic work, Jonathan? I got into trouble years ago dipping a pair of twin carbs into an ultrasonic cleaner meant for cleaning PCBs.

Yes it did work 90% of the dirt came off. the liquid went black and all the dirt was in the bottom when I drain the liquid out.

A family friend came over and set up the carb and the timing tonight. Car is running great now.
