Twin SUs overhaul
Can any one advise me please. In twin SU's the jet (needle) is supposed to bend slightly towards the engraved line on the brass retaining collar. I have no such markings on my pistons / pots. The manual shows it must bend to the right, when you have the tightening screw facing you. Surely with twin SU's this is OK for the left hand one, but the right( being the other way around) bends the opposite way?
Also the right hand pot will not sink fully, unless the nozzle (brass collar) has been nearly fully screwed out. Is this OK, as it must be 7 turns lower than the left hand pot..will this effect choking?? I am very frustrated and spent 5 hours trying to get them both to sink in tandem, and not leave a mm gap. I still get a very small gap on the right hand one, but no matter how many angles I move the needle, it will not sink fully with the brass nozzle in place (it does when the nozzle is removed !!) Does this make any difference, or am I being too fussy ?? Thanks Baz |
