Re: Smelly Morris problem

Hi
Possibly the same problem that I had with Meggie especially as you are running a similar set up. Have you checked to see if you are running rich? This was mynproblem and a replacement flat and needle valve from SU cured this.
Either way good luckπŸ‘πŸ‘

Re: HIF 44 carb needle

If it is the float letting too much petrol through would I be correct in assuming that the excess fuel is being pushed out of the overflow and this is what the strong smell of petrol is coming from?

seat restoration

Morning all
Hope you can help with this I have reupholstered the front seats in Meggie and cleaned the covers which are PVC but they are quite dull and I am struggling to get any sort of shine back into them. I have tried Mothers cleaner and various polishes but to no avail.
