OK, got to the test station, the tracky pants seem to provide close to the right mixture.

Bit of a slow test but the outcome was what I had hoped for, it passed. They let me loose with the exhaust gas analyser so I adjusted the carbs so they were both about 0.2% CO, which they thought was about right.

I went into the office to collect the paperwork and there was a shout from the workshop, it let go a rad full of water (and anti-freeze) all over the garage floor. :-(


I bought a bottle of rad seal and put it in, I drove about 4 miles to a garage to get some fuel and it was just pouring out, so I cut and ran to a friends house, he is in the IoM watching the racing but I pulled the rad and managed to get back here. I need to solder the rad again then recover the Marlin.

It's been a long day.
