HS6 SU Carb on Marina 1275 - what needle/Jet ?

Hello Merlin,

if you ring Burlen they will be able to tell you which one you need, they are not expensive.

Glad to see you are not heeding the advice of the meat dissection merchants above

Turn over the one you have - it may well be right! Seriously - this is just a little spacer - it's not critical.

the angle will depend on what inlet manifold you're using. if you've got a protractor to hand you can measure the angle you've got.

Thats exactly the plan of attack. Will measure the angle then order the right one with a service kit for the carb and a fuel pump kit at the same time.

I have tried to turn it over as well but is doesnt fit at all that way. I notice on the old HS2 that there appears to be no spacer at all so you must just undo the hs2 and turn them a bit - alot less accurate than a locking spacer.

Unless there is a known problem - I wouldn't start on 'service kits' - just run it! There's little to go wrong.
