G'day all, I must be JINXED. After saying those lever taps were good one of mine failed after only 60 miles. Whilst debugging the new motor it cut out on RH side. 1 million horrible thoughts go through mind. OK start from beginning, spark check, comp check, fuel bugga. New flat slide carbs, more horrible thoughts. Fuel in tank OK, not in carb. Bloody tap. Looks like the rubber doesn't like the go fast additives I use. Now running a pair of VICTA LAWNMOWER taps. Another 60 miles, so far so good.
Cheers
