Hi all

I have been looking for the micture screw on my HIF 44 carb and i know it should be on the left hand side (facing the front of the car). However there is no screw that i can see at all.

Is it possible that it is covered with a blanking plate of some sort?

Regards Stu

It wont be covered, but it is sort of pointing down and toward the bulkhead so its likely that its just out of sight. Get a torch in there and youll see it

It would have been covered with an anti tamper plaggy bung - amazing if it's still there.

It's number 4 - though somehow the drawing is a mirror image :D

No. 1, just above the adjustment screw, is the fuel in pipe.
No. 2, lower centre, is the fuel overflow from the bowl.
No. 3, above the spindle, is for the crankcase/engine breather. If you don't have it connected to your breather then block this one off with a blob of RTV silicon.
You probably have another short outlet pipe just below the piston chamber - it's the vent for the float and should be left open.
