16:00 make sure both throttle forks on the linkage are lose and then balance them. Once they are balanced then set them to engage the throttle plate at the same time. I like to set them with a bit of play either way of the linkage fork. You can't use the cable while lose as they are then independent. That's the way to base line them.
Hi guys loving the vlogs, I used to work for British Leyland as it was in the 70s. Love the balancing tool, we had similar but I used a piece of small bore rubber tube and my ears lol basic but effective. I was going to mention the carb synchronisation about loosening balance bar between carbs the use individual screws to balance but noticed someone else has told you. Love these engines, I had a marina tc coupe, had huge boot for my toolkit and welders at weekends when assisting others come mot time. One new tool you may consider new or secondhand is a gunsons pressure bleeder, once used you will wonder how you did without it, marina clutch was a nightmare to bleed, but that tool completed the job in literally seconds. If you do use a pressure bleeder only use about 3-5psi in tyre not like I did first time 35psi...wondering why plastic mastercylinder was ballooning lol. Best of luck guys, nice motors 😊
That was a nifty tool for setting up the twin carbs, I don't ever remember seeing one of those back when I worked on them. That's turned out to be a good example of the breed that your brother has bought himself.
By coincidence just yesterday I replaced both the clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder on my Wolseley 1500 so I can definitely share some of the pain with you. That brake fluid gets everywhere and it did't help my state of mind when having got a decent pedal pressure after laying on my back on a cold concrete floor for what seemed an eternity I decided to ask for one more push on the pedal and ended up with air back in the system! And don't even ask about how long it took laid on my back like a practicing contortionist in the footwell to get the clevis pin back through the master cylinder rod and clutch pedal due to it fouling the steering column. Strong language rent the air asunder until I finally I figured it out, but hey ho such is life........

Great work boys but remember, funnels are cheap.

It’s very handy for twin carbs, turning out to be a rather good buy this one.

Ah yes I feel your pain… one of those moments when you wonder why you do it!
If you don't have a funnel handy you can cut the top off a small plastic bottle to make one.
I’m afraid you witnessed pure laziness, I could have walked 10 feet for a funnel… but chose not too!
Such a sweet sounding engine... well done on the clutch change.. (Phil)
We’ve got it dialled in fairly well now! Thanks for watching.
i spy an old atco 2 stroke mower!
What was the carb gauge brand?
