    Take the needle seats out of the carb and inspect the o rings. Fuel can bypass the needle seat if they are hard and flat. They get like this after about 6 months of non use.

    Engine in…..new problems.

    Is this what you have? Did it come with the engine, and is the flywheel also a neutral-balanced flywheel? Did the engine builder supply the damper and flywheel and balance the rotating assembly together...

    Is this one your Ron?

    I have wondered what happened to your car. It's good to know she had a good go with someone who enjoyed it. It looks like there is plenty of life in it for the next chapter. I hope it ends up at a track near me. Maybe if you find out who buys it, you could let us all know what happens to it...

    I have a Renault R21 with the 1-piece input shaft, better ratio 1st and 2nd gears, and a Quaife TBD. I'm going to take it out and install a Porsche G50 with custom gears and Quaife TBD.
