Switching the 1/2 wires is very easy to do because they can't be seen where they may cross. I hold the wire with both hands, one on each side of the generator and give a gentle tug against each hand. The manifold was colder because that side wasn't producing power.
If you use a foam sock you had better not be running rich, fire hazard! K and N cloth filters are less likely to ignite, unless you are ultra rich.
Mark, nice meeting you last week!

Re: Plug Wires and Carburetion
Nice meeting you too CJ. I took your tip of using Nyloc nuts on my Solex injection pump shafts and was able to dial them in nicely. Thanks!

John, I was following the recommendation by Jim at Carburetor Rescue: http://www.356carburetorrescue.com/Sinstall.html and which is attributed to the 'different performance levels' of the gas here in the US.John Clarke wrote: ↑Wed Jul 24, 2019 12:40 pm HI Mark
Why do you set the floats on the 40 P11 at 2mm under spec ? what happens when you set them to the 'correct spec'
Regards Jay
I did get a bit less flooding by lowering the level.
