PS can you reduce your avatar width a bit?

Done

think the engine is running a bit rich looking at your rear wing.

Did you check / set the timing?

Wouldn't think the exhaust would make that much difference.

(looks good by the way, but i'm not saying that as i'm jealous)

Is that an Ikea pan stand attached to the nose?

Your the second person to say that to me today, you've got me all self concious now

OTOH, i can't decide what i'd put there instead, i think i'd miss the shinyness, i just can't picture it with honeycombe.

Definitely running a bit rich, not set the timing yet, the carb is getting too hot, and the fuel is boiling when i switch it off, which means the fuel then pours into the venturi, most annoying.

It did this before, and the problem went away by magic, so im not sure what to do about it really. I'm tempted with a new carb since im sure that ones wonky, but carb magic is a bit of an unknown for me.
