Hi, Got a problem back at base.
I am trying to get my engine running now it is all finished. I
have bought a gunson colour tune set to set the mixture,
but obviously i need to have the engine running to do that!
Now there is my problem i cant get the b****rd to run for more than
5 secs! The carb is a HIF 44, how should i set the mixture screw to start
it and also the idle, choke cable and accelerator cable butterflies?
As i think its just flooding at the mo! Any ideas and tips would be much
appreciated. :D

Set the jet flush with the top of the bridge and then wind the jet two flats (or 2/6ths of a turn on a HIF) down from there. Same as the initial position for all SU's. And wind the fast idle screw well clear of the cam, set all cables so there is 1/16" free play. Setting up the initial position is all listed in the Haynes.
