Dear MG List, A while ago I've verified the flow through my SU's. What I've found out is that there was a "huge" difference in flow through the front and rear carburettor. After reading a lot it beca

Always check/adjust valves, plugs, points/dwell and timing and ensure that HT leads, coil, dizzie cap, rotor etc are sound before adjusting the carbs - "90% of SU carb problems are in the electrics".

The thing to watch for in an early (non-smog) MGB head is exhaust valve seat regression. If the exhaust valves continually need to be tightened, it is evidence of the seats eroding away. If your rea

<snip> Menno, IMHO it is better to have somewhat larger clearances than smaller ones. Then the cooling is a bit better. That's what my dad taught me about 30 years ago... With most B engines, clkeara
