Okay, the bottom pipe is the one for the fuel inlet, the two top pipes are easily identified by the size the larger one is the breather and the smaller of the two is the fuel over flow. Help that helps?

thanks gazman sounds like your having exactly the same trouble, you had any luck sorting it yet?


Sorted mine now. Turned out the HT leads were on the wrong connectors. It would appear that all the advice and Haynes manuals were wrong. I moved mine all anticlockwise one connector and it fired first time!

I think you will find that the Haynes manual is not wrong but rather that the person who set up the disrtibutor timing did not follow an accepted 'correct' procedure. This leads the the confusion. If they had followed clearly set out procedures, that the majority of people follow as a general rule, you would not have had a problem :-

Some one always has to do something differently :goaway:
