But - Once you have equalized the "hiss" through the butterflies, you can fine tune the slide lifts, with the paper clips, to be equal by fine adjustments of the piston return springs. The springs,

Hi Norman, I have had the same problem crossing speed bumps. Didn't smash the linkage but bent it enough to require adjustment. Do you have a solution for this problem? It seems as though the clutch

Hi Alan, I noticed that the clutch pedal is easier to push & clutch action is more progressive now. It must have something to do with the leverage angles. As you say, more room for the fuel line & wi

Hi Neil, I personally use the "standard" NGK plugs. Can't really see any need for the "exotics". It's true that many Sprites use the same plugs for stock applications. Regards, Dave Russell BN2
