Re: Running Issues not seen before.

The float chamber looked ok when i had it apart no breaks or anything, and the gasket wasnt damaged so i thought that would be ok, How much are these kits to refurb the carb and where can i get one from?

Re: D300 LBO my new 3 door 360GLT

Those wheels do look awesome, i was allways tempted try bmw cross spokes but could never find any 15" ones.

Does anyone else think that the rear camber is more noticable on non lowered 300's then it is on lowered ones or is it just me?

Re: Running Issues not seen before.

Sounds like a plan, i have a few carbs lying about so will mix and match parts if need be to make an uber carb lol, will also replace the carb gaskets aswell to eliminate that as a potential cause.

Re: Retro Rides Gathering 09 Stand Available. Final Call Page 9!

Was great fun out on the track, i think next year ill improve my times by not slowing down as much for the last bit. Cant wait for next year to see how much i can improve :D

Just gotta crack on with finding and fixing a vacuum leak which has arose from the thrashing on the track.
