SU carb setup

Post by saturdaynightbeaver » Sat Sep 27, 2008 9:39 pm

I have an SJ413 with an SU carb - i'm not too sure which one, but the bloke i got the car from said it was off a triumph of some description. Trouble is that it runs REALLY rich (bloody stinks) - which needle and jet do i need for this? and does anyone have any good links for SU parts?

Cheers

EDIT: it looks like i've got an HS2 type SU carburettor (the part number is AUD257R)

the best su carb to use is a hif 44 off of the old mini that works best with the sj 1.3
