Reply to "Chesil Speedster - my planned winter overhaul of '98 build"

A question for carb afficionados, if I may. If my main jets are 175, but I've no idea if they're right for the car or not (because it's not run right in my short ownership before taking it off the road to check ovef and refurb the car) , which service kit should I buy from Dellorto - the one with 150 main jets or the one with 170 main jets?

I know that's like asking 'how long is this piece of string I'm holding behind my back' but it's worth a shot! I presume in the absence of options, I'd go with the nearest (170) and see how it goes. Any advice appreciated. If none, I can always ask Dellort to perhaps swap out the jets in the service kit with 175s. Given how poorly the car has run due to so much dirt and crud in the system, I've no idea how well this car can run. Just cleaning the entire system through should make a significant difference.

Thanks, Martin
