Hi everyone!

I have bought and re built a set of twin carbs on a manifold but today came round to fitting them and they foul the bulkhead crossmember.

I am guessing the manifold is a midget one but just looking for confirmation.

Yep, Sprite/Midget manifold and heatshield. It probably has the sprite fuel bowls too (different angle)

Right, well at least I know. Yet another expense!! Cheers

If the float chambers are fouling the bulkhead, you can change the angle by using other adaptors, Speak to Burlen fuel systems on 01722 412500, they can help but Part numbers may be AUD1316 or AUD2178, they can help clarify. 

 

You need a 30 degree angle on the floats,you may have 10 or 20 degrees at present
