  1. anyone happen to have a sump for a cvh 1800 and a pick up pipe phil
  2. thanks for the notes peter will give it a try
  3. does anyone have a link to a workshop manual for the honda fireblade bike carbs phil
  4. thanks will be in touch don't suppose you have access to a pdf for setting up the carbs phil
  5. yes still got it if you have any questions please get in touch phil
  6. it was the float valves cleaned everything down and no fuel gushing out anymore. Whats more have started her up for first time and there is life in the pinto. Carbs need setting up will only run on tic over and timing is totally out so only runs on tick over but what the hell she is running. Which of the south yorks members has the area timing light? Phil
  7. when i say the four pipes yes its the four pipes (or nipples ) from the float bowls. i have the fuel pipe connected to the articulated connectors at the bottom cant actually see any breather pipes on mine will need to have a look not a pic from my car but found this pic which shows where the fuel pukes from (the bottom ones not the top ones. The large pipe which splits shown in the middle of the photo is where i have connected my fuel pipe suggestions
  8. thanks nick see you when next in the area phil
  9. has anyone done the bike carb conversion. have finally got round to attempting to start the engine but I am getting fuel pouring out of what I assume to be the overflow pipes from the bottom of the carb (there are four of them). as i am not familiar with the honda fireblade set up can anyone make some suggestions as to whats going wrong / what i need to do to put right. nb i have the low pressure fuel pump supplied by GBS to go with the bike cars so it should not be a case of too high a pressure (i think). any suggestions as to what to do next would be appreciated, phil
  10. Having stripped my old 2b i still have for sale my stainless steel chassis. It comes complete with the front upper and lower wishbones. No vin number. Fitted are the side panels and rear panel and the rear wheel arches all in stainless, oh and of course the floor. Original ford pedal box is also fitted This chassis would be ideal for anyone wanting to rebuild their 2b after an accident etc Collection only from Sheffield. was originally looking for £650 but as I would like the space in the garage for winter so will accept £500.
  11. It's such a shame the content of the show was so poor don't know why the exhibitors and stall holders don't seem to want to attend came with the intention of spending money but only picked up £5 worth of trim I just can't see how in current formatt it can keep going even though it fits in nicely as the last show for builders to buy parts etc for that winter project I would not like this show to be taken off the calendar why is it that only us and the cobra guys turned up there must be more kit owners in the midlands it can't be that kit owners have to pay entry can it the free entry to kit car owners at all the other shows seems to work. Lots of cars means stall holders will think it's worth while conning also they attract punters who have more of a day for the cost of their entry. Sorry could not camp this time but needed to get back for work
