Next bits over weekend

New needle valve and new economy device diaphragm ordered, received and fitted over the weekend. Will adjust the float level by swapping in and out the various different thickness washers that I now have.

Using two relatively think washers at the moment, very little seepage from the carb bowl - if any. So it feels like it is low enough. But still maybe too low. Still some hesitation on cruising, tickover is a bit lumpy once warmed up - the choke masks that reasonably well. Occasional backfire. Maybe too lean, but down to the float level being too low now perhaps, rather than the mixture screw.

But sat in a fairly long traffic jam on Saturday and didn't stall once! So hopefully getting there.

Thinking of selling the old Nissan now. Over confident?...
