    Sorry, the pic of that plug was from the guy AC DODD who you professed a dislike for. His day job is tuning SU carb'd engines. I am going to be doing a bit more miles tomorrow going to that show so I will pull the plugs after that round trip...

    100 thou. So 1/10 of an inch. Without measuring it, just looking at by eye on your pic, that looks to me a bit more than that. Just saying. Have you actually measured it? And I am not sure who you are referring to, is it you, being ironic about...

    I know the jet does not move, the jet should only be used to set the idle mixture only. But if you go hog-wild and wind it down too far you affect more than just the idle mixture, you affect the first few station positions too. :(

    Yes I know. If you wind the jet DOWN the mixture is enriched across the entire needle profile as the needle moves up and down. Contouring the needle at the relevant "stations" affects the mixture at the station-specific rev-range. The needle...

    Just a thought, the jet in an SU isn't adjustable All the jets are the same size and fixed in HIF 38 carb for instance, just have different needles for different cars
