Can anyone tell me how to adjust the air screw or fuel metering screw on the right hand carb as the hose is in the way and i can not even get a small driver in ?, the left hand carb is easy to get to regards  J

You can buy long reach carb adjusting screwdrivers, which have a 90 degree bend on them. That could work

cheers thanks for that, but have solve the problem, length of small bore rubber pipe like the one from the carb to the fuel tap vacuum and insert a 6mm hex shaft screw driver bit in to it, works a treat regards J

Hi,

The rubber hose and screw driver bit was a good tip, adjusted my carb with same method. You get more freeplay to coolant hose when you remove the hook shape part that locates hose to cylinder.
