Thanks, very useful for a new owner.

for some reason i've never run across this video before.... it's an excellent explanation of how SU's work. of course, it's even of more useful, if you've had some familiarity with them in the past.

As to driving without oil in the dash pot. Some early MGBs had SU carbs where the brass nobs on top spontaneously loosened, especially at speed. Mostly it caused rough running. Pull over, tighten down and go. Without oil in the dashpot the engine will just stall out. BTW - if you need SU service and can't find anyone, try a custom motorcycle shop. Harley engine builders love them!

Hi enjoyed the video about parts to the carburettor. In fact I have just fitted a vacuum line too and from the carbs to distributor never had one fitted a previous owner had cut it off for reason unknown. Just one thing which I had only just found out is the filters in the top off the fuel bowls where the fuels runs through might be worth mentioning? Otherwise I would have loved to have found this 14 years ago when first bought my Mga 1500. In fact I have just found out my carbs are from a 1600, dont think it affects the running of the engine. Regards Tony

Une idée de la référence de la couleur de cette Mga ? Merci d'avance Didier
