Andy are you still using the mechanical fuel pump on the engine, probably if still with the standard carb's but check the length of the push rod and check for wear.

Cheers Adrian,

Yes I,m using the standard mechanical fuel pump,
would wear on the push rod cause it to run at a faster tickover ?
I,ll whip it out tomorrow & have a look at it, I,ll check the book & see if it gives dimensions etc & if its ok to lubricate it etc.

Thanks for the "heads up" , I didn,t think of the fuel pump

cheers
