Rocker Cover Gasket
When replacing the rocker cover gasket clean the rocker cover and apply contact adhesive to
the lip where the gasket sits. This will make refitting the rocker cover much easier. And
don’t over tighten the nuts holding the rocker cover on or you will distort it and have an oil
leak again.
Easy SU carb idle adjustment
Ever tried using a screwdriver to adjust the idle speed of your SU carb? Find a bit of old fuel line
about 3 inches long. Push fit this over the screw and you can easily twist the screw with two
fingers! Best part is you can leave the pipe on in case you need to adjust the idle speed later!
