Charlie,
Thanks for helping with this – I have done what you suggest – (see photo).
I can adjust the end of the cable but it looks like I need a wire or something to reach the lever. Does that sound about right?

That looks to be a different carb to mine. The air pipe is just a piece of straight 2″ hose on mine.

cheers owen 🙂 i will have a watch in a mo.

Charlie ive got some numbers off the model 100 …s/n from plate on chassis E209 51 Numbers from the cowling on the engine …. that i can see ? 80302 0153 01
any info would be muchley appreciated many thanks

Thanks both. Will check these things, especially points. The engine after a few mintutes running is tip top, runs ticks over and responds well to the throttle, nice and tight, governor works well to regulate varying loads.

Also seems quite economical, as used only half a tank of fuel for a days logging pulling loaded trailer up a long and in places steep hill. engine breaking also quite good on decent.

Just this niggle that no choke is needed, which is a bit odd. I will look at the points, and if we have any trouble with it will lap valves this winter. Thanks again.

Charlie,
Is that a barford tipping trailer I see before me on the 020 image? Got any hens teeth in there by any chance…any rocking horse…er…leftovers?

Charlie,
Thanks for your help. From your pictures there seems to be an extra spring on mine.
There is a spring which tensions the brass governor lever. As you can see there is a bracket on my new cable but nowhere to fix it. Any suggestions?

Just double check your carb. Better to make sure before you order.
