Well just measured mine outside of drum to outside drum is 1425mm so very close to the eK measurements of 1420 so looks like my issue is the rims I have. It's proving hard to track down a set of rims... These ones came from a Ej Wagon but are 6 in rims. But after some reseRch looks like I have one ...

Thanks I will measure it ans see whats up...

After it would idle and rev up until I could see fuel in the main jet. Plus I did get a big bit of crap come back out ...

Thanks Craig and Dr terry,

I looked down the throat of the carby. I could not see any fuel coming in anywhere. It would stall unless I gave it a pump and a squirt would come in. So I took apart the top of the carby took out the fuel bowl and there was a lot of junk in there. I didnt have a tool to ...

Stars can be got from Rares. Not to expensive .

Nice will check out. I was thinking of just polishing up a larger piece of aluminium flat but not sure how to mount.

So if I end up asking a million questions, but I got start somewhere.

I have a workshop manual on the way, but in the mean time can some share a pic of what the bolts and brackets look like to to fit the outside sections of the rear bumper where it wraps around.?
