These videos are amazing. Just the right length and packed with tips.

Thanks Must get back to making some more

@@barjhealy It's something you are really good at . I stripped a seagull 40 Villiers carb today following your video. All went well . Old no 3 needle. Had to tease the needle spring out using a wood screw and it worked. I usually restore full size trains from 1920 so working on something smaller is a pleasure.

[@barjhealy]

Sure are different from trains. Pick up a couple more it's addictive

Excellent video. Very informative.

[@tanyajohnson1254]

what do you gain or loose by going in or out a turn on the needle. many thanks jim

[@barjhealy]

Fuel air mixture ratio

Well i did not know that, thanks, will think about converting my 1967 featherweight to 25:1

[@janramonmartin]

what is the purpose of 'Screw "A"'? does it need to be adjusted in any way?

[@barjhealy]

I wouldn't touch it. Adjust the needle up or down if needed

[@janramonmartin]

@@barjhealy thanks for replying, I haven’t seen the needle number/oil ratio anywhere else on the internet very useful

[@theislandpackrat]

Does it use more fuel or about the same 10-1 or 25-1?

[@barjhealy]

+theislandpackrat it burns the same amount of fuel either way Thanks for commenting

[@alanlake5220]

But uses less oil, and should not smoke as much

[@steveturpin4242]

Good one! Thanks...

[@edgarbeat275]

Ahhh just relised I am using 25to1 I guessed the mix. Spluttering

[@edgarbeat275]

Where can I buy a conversion needle and parts in general ? I will try a 10th 1 fuel mix tomorrow.
