Oh right, I won't ask why lol....who are NORK? Only reason I go to beeston is its the first local club I came across but they do tend to have a bit of a tight circle.
Ive also discovered what part of the problem may well be....it turns out the carb IS an HIF38 not an HIF44 which it was advertised as so I'm a little annoyed at this. I should have checked upon receipt of it but just assumed it was right
Its possible, I adjusted the mixture to roughly 3.5 turns out as a starting point and it was better than it was at first. Also I found the "piston" that moves up with vacuum inside the carb was stuck down, its free now but its harder to start with it like this (leaner??) What kind of pics ...

Then a small lead connecte...
Yes thats how Im testing it while its bolted to the engine out of the truck.
Its hard to test when its alone not attatched to anything as there's no resistance to the gear spinning, like there would be when its engaged with the flywheel
