I've managed 47mpg over a tankful, but that was properly pootling along on French rural roads. _________________ 1988 built (1989 F-registered) Citroën 2CV-Six 2013 (63-Plate) VW Golf SE 1.4TSI BMT DSG7 1932 Morris Minor Open Two-Seater (The £100 car).

Another way of putting the primary jet in place, if you cannot find a toothpick, is to use a plastic covered wire tie - the sort of thing you use to tie plastic freezer bags and come on a strip of about 20 - you peel back a little of the plastic on one side and its a neat fit then for the jet....... _________________ 1987 2CV Special 2014 Suzuki Swift Sport 2015 Lexus NX300h 1966 Ami Break

Ken im intrigued by re jetting to give less throttle same speed action, as i have wanted to change, as mine is pretty crap low to mid range gear two... as Fieldmouse will recall Any suggestion as what jet size to aim for? i know ive asked that before, but dont recall a definate answer... On ecas waiting to order to fit sunday (while I have time I) Got the car inside at work with carb lid off. Took main jet out and the two jets are completely different size (physically) Got the Haynes manual put to read up to make sure I'm trying the correct jet, but when I take the big jet out is there one underneath? Ordered a 107 as ken suggested but one I got says 105 on the body of te jet :confused: _________________ 1988 2cv 652cc 1993 Toyota Hilux Surf 3000cc runs on Bio Diesel 2004 Toyota Landcruiser Amazon 4200cc runs on Bio Diesel 1998 Daihatsu Hijet 1300cc 2005 Susuki Bandit 650cc

A photograph, if that's any help. http://www.flickr.com/photos/30132857@N ... hotostream Sometimes wonder when folk say they're having problems with their carburettor and mention that they've 'had the carb apart and cleaned out the jets and it made no difference'. Maybe they're confusing the air corrector jets with the fuel jets? ken Jameswallace wrote: Ok cheers Sean. Will have a look in a minute when I'm back at work ! _________________
