Over the past 40 years I have adjusted my share of SU carbs but recently I find
that I may have been doing it wrong. I have always been under the impression
that the pin on each HD8 was used to adjust that carburetor's mixture, however,
recently I've read and followed the instructions of 2 articles that indicate
the pin is used to adjust the other carb (i.e. back carb pin to adjust the
front carb and visa versa).
A number of club members and sports car associates seems to indicate that they
were also surprised by the new approach and under my original understanding. I
can't believe I've been wrong all this time. However, the new (to me) way seems
very logical. I would like to hear which is considered correct by the list.
All the best,
