  • Why Do I Bother

    just a little moan about spending on one thing after another ,i recently brought a set of twin forty delorto's,right lets get em fitted so fitted them on, they came with inlet filters throttle linkage,sorted i thought,so put them on and i would need to buy a new dizzy cap (right angled)oh no they don't do a right angled cap for a motorcraft dizzy,so had to buy a new one so i thought id buy an electrinic one so brought a new one(more money) then the old leads fell to bits so got new leads,fired it up ran crap wouldn't idle would rev but not idle,it kept wetting two plugs,so stripped the them down cleaned them out put them back together,now it idles ok not perfect but better,now i cant fit the k&n filters,so had to buy a new mastercylinder & remote resavoir bottle to clear the filters,so fitted that & the reasvoir bottle is a bigger thread than the outlet,so no prob il will nip to mylocal motor factors & get a new pipe made up,but nobody had the 7/16 ends i needed so going to have to try get them more meoney & waisted time,thats it realy just a bit fed up with spending & waiting,so my new carbs have cost me about £450ish so just racked off
