DOH!! It occures to me, that these are the later HS2's, with the Y tube part
removed while I am tuning it, so that I can reach the other fiddly bits on the
linkage. No wonder it is still running, it is sucking air through those ports.
The car is running, so ignition and fuel are there, I just need to put plugs on
those carb ports, and then check for other leaks. Will report back findings as
they appear. Thank you for all the suggestions.
