Found it on Darrell's diagrams
We normally complain about the carbs freezing (admittedly SJ with SU) so why did they think it's a good idea to run the fuel return though the carb to keep it cool.

Yea, that is pretty confusing!
Unfortunately I have one more problem. ( I promise I'm sure it's the last one!) the engine now starts and runs fine for about 5 seconds, then the revs drop and it dies unless you throttle it. So basically it won't idle right.
I'm guessing something to do with auto choke, but I don't know how to check that.
Also there are two electrical connectors on the carb that I haven't connected yet, I heard one is an idle up valve or something, could this cause that problem?
Cheers

One is the fuel stop solenoid......wire it up as it's what is causing your problem
It's the one on top.
