Title: Auto Choke Coolant Feed
Post by: Neil-yaj396 on October 25, 2021, 01:34:35 PM
Stupidly, having previously removed the carb and refitted it with no issues I didn't take any photos this time round. The refurbished carb is fitted, but the coolant feed hoses seem to almost foul the dipstick, not to mention the HT leads. I know that it doesn't matter which way round they fit, but does anyone have a photo of the hoses in situ? Also does the 'left' side hose route behind or in front of the carb?

Now all the fuel lines are back in I'd forgotten how very 'busy' this part of the engine bay is!

Hi Neil,

On mine, it routes around the front of the carb to the manifold spigot.

Regards, Nigel

Hi
on mine, the "two outlets" cap, screwed with a bolt in the center, is rotated differently, and this may add extra space.

Thanks, the chap who refurbished the carb advised that this may need adjusting.
