    Now Mandy's been arrested.

    Starmer appointed Mandy as US Ambassador, AGAINST ADVICE

    Where does this leave Starmer, ex DPP and supposedly a top flight lawyer?

    Starmer looks as useless and stupid as he actually is now.

    Mandleson looks very worried.

    AND STILL NOT A PEEP FROM BLAIR.

    WHY?

  • Len Fanelli23 February 2026

    The US racers, Manley Ford & Derick Chima, have done lots of research on this subject along with dyno testing.
    The SU rebuilders usually set the jet height at .075" expecting that the customer will lean it out 2 flats.
    IF your jet height is not very close to .060"-.063" below the bridge you WILL notice much more torque at tip in throttle at highway speeds.
    Oh, 90W gear oil is the same...

    Sounds like fun. Have a great time.

    BTW your title got me a bit confused (Pre 18956).

    <<I'm sure the Minor clutch has always had a mechanical linkage with no hydraulics involved.>>
    Ah, that would be why it has a pull off spring attached to the lever arm then!

    Some interesting info on the new rules for Brits with dual citizenship.

    Willy, yes very strange how the cold start has helped! Only being used to SU's and Stromberg carbs when the previous owner said don't use, I listened.

    As for checking jets etc I'm leaving them alone until its had its first track outing or two to see how the car performs, so far after a couple of short trips on the road it appears to come to life very nicely once you put your foot down, but ...

  • C Mee23 February 2026

    Willy, the pedals are the same height within a mm or two.

    The only spring at the slave end is the internal one. The pedal and slave return to resting positions without any hesitation.

    I'm going to see what effect a shorter push rod has.

    Guy, I'm sure the Minor clutch has always had a mechanical linkage with no hydraulics involved.

    Thanks for your comments.

    Thanks Ray. Unfortunately not in ISA wrappers or share scheme.


    Willy hope to put the house on the market soon, but likely won't sell and complete until the new taxyear anyway. But as you say, worth delaying settlement. I won't have any rental income in 202627 tax year, so hope to mostly avoid 24% cgt, with a bit of help from my losses as well.

    I agree, sounds like those half...
